Bastos is described as 5'7 and 170 pounds with brown eyes and black hair. He's known to drive a red Honda and frequents the Brighton Avenue area of Allston and Framingham, police said.
According to police, officers responded to a breaking and entering on Murdock Street around 12:12 a.m. on that day. A man was seen entering a house's enclosed porch around that time holding a Dunkin' bag. He then returned almost an hour later, at 1:04 a.m., holding a McDonald's bag. The man took eight Allston-Brighton jerseys before leaving in a Prius style vehicle, police said.

The jerseys are valued at about $330, police previously said. A representative from Allston-Brighton youth hockey told NBC10 Boston in a statement last month they hoped the jerseys would be returned quickly.
"It's really unfortunate that someone would steal these items from one of our youth hockey players."
An investigation is active and ongoing.
