Burglars broke into Hamburger Mary’s — located at 4123 Cedar Springs, on the corner of Cedar Springs Road and Knight Street — in the early morning hours today (Saturday, May 3), making off with two safes full of cash, according to owners Don Smith and Romeo Vale and leaving thousands of dollars of damage in their wake.
Smith and Vale said that sometime between 4 and 9 a.m., burglars broke out a window on the Knight Street side of the building, near the restaurant’s front door. They then broke through the locked office door to get to the safes. The owners said the burglars apparently had a pry bar that they used first to try and gain entrance to the office. But when that didn’t work, they kicked the door in, leaving shoe prints on the door.
