Intruders break in at CVS


Marion Police Department was investigating a break-in at CVS early Tuesday morning.

An alarm alerted police of the attempted burglary at about 1 a.m. The suspects were apparently scared away by the alarm. At first inspection, there appeared to have been nothing taken.

The store opened on schedule this morning at 9 a.m., however, workers were still trying to clean up the mess. The intruders came in from duct work in the ceiling, causing a great deal of damage.

Pictured is shift supervisor Gretchen Jamison looking at the hole in the ceiling where the would-be burglars gained entry to the store.

The Crittenden Press will have more details on this case in this week's printed edition due out Wednesday afternoon.
