policecar3The Waynesboro Police is requesting assistance in its investigation in an overnight burglary of a Waynesboro business.  At 7:30 a.m. today, officers responded to Dollar Tree, 2715 West Main Street for a report of a break in.

Sometime after 9:30 p.m. on August 3, 2014, assailants entered the store by prying open a rear door to the adjacent business space which is vacant and then accessing Dollar Tree.  A safe was taken from the business’ office.  Then the back loading dock entrance was forced open and the safe removed.  Store staff estimate that there was approximately $800 in the safe at the time.

Officers and detectives collected physical evidence left at the scene which will be sent off to the Department of Forensic Science.
