Police say Boudreaux dressed in all camouflage, wore gloves to prevent leaving fingerprints, and packed burglary tools. Everything was going as planned until Boudreaux realized he forgot his mask to cover his identity.
Remembering that his former place of employment had surveillance cameras, Boudreaux improvised and found a bucket to put over his head as he scoured the business, looking for money; however, the surveillance cameras caught a glimpse of his face which ultimately led to police identifying Boudreaux as the burglar.
Boudreaux was able to get away with money from the cash register, then went to another nearby business, Jerry's Buy and Sell pawn shop, and attempted to burglarize that business as well. Police say when Boudreaux was unable to gain entry into Jerry's Buy and Sell, he gave up for the night and went home.
