Police are on the hunt for a man who is believed to be behind a string of residential burglaries.
The man, who Sussex Police are seeking to identify, is thought to be linked to 19 break-ins during September, October and November in an area from Rye through to St Leonards.
Police said break-ins and attempted break-ins have been reported in Rye, Crowhurst, Winchelsea, Fairlight, Hastings, Ore and St Leonards.
CCTV captured a suspect as he left an address in Hastings on Tuesday, November 1.
He is white, between 5ft 8in and 5ft 10in, slight and aged 20 to 30 years old.
He has been seen wearing a cream beanie hat, black balaclava and a hoodie, with jeans and grey trainers. The waistband of his underwear was also seen to have a distinctive white "Guess" logo across it.
A Sussex Police spokesman said: “Anybody who recognises this individual or the description, or has any information or relevant footage which could help with the investigation, is asked to contact police online or via 101, quoting Operation Expense.”
