“They kicked in the bottom panel of the door. We don’t know the cost of the damage yet or what was taken.”
The shop was closed yesterday while police attended the scene. It is hoped it will reopen today. A police spokesman said an attempt had been made to remove the safe from the shop, but the offenders failed to do so and instead broke into it.
Anyone with any information should call police on 101 quoting WA 1810983.
