The Pierce County Sheriff’s Office is on the hunt for two burglary suspects following an incident at a local McDonald’s. In a post shared via their official Facebook page, the office revealed that the pair struck the fast-food establishment on 22nd Ave E, Tacoma, around 7:30pm on March 8th. As detailed in the social media post, a female accomplice acted as a lookout while her male counterpart used a pry bar to forcibly open the cash box at one of the self-serve kiosks.
Demonstrating a brazen disregard for the establishment’s operation during regular business hours, the suspects walked away with an undisclosed amount of cash, but not without causing significant damage. The burglary resulted in over $17,000 worth of destruction, indicating that the theft, far from a trifling matter, had severe financial consequences for the local franchise. The Pierce County Sheriff’s Office is keen to apprehend these individuals and is appealing to the public for assistance.
Recognizing the power of community involvement, the authorities have urged anyone with information that could lead to the identification of the suspects to step forward. Community members who might be able to identify these culprits have been encouraged to contact the sheriff’s office on their non-emergency line at (253) 287-4455…
