A Cantonment man was allegedly caught on video as he tried successfully to break into a cellphone store.

According to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office, Boyett was caught on security video as he tried to force his way into the Metro PCS store in the 8000 block of Lillian Highway. He repeatedly tried for about three minutes to pull the doors open and even tried to kick the doors to break the glass, deputies said. He was shirtless, wearing shorts and a bracelet on his left wrist.
