A burglar stole a safe Wednesday night from Goldie’s Texas Style BBQ in Vancouver.
The restaurant owner told police he was informed by a security company that the alarm was activated around 11:15 p.m., Vancouver Police Department spokeswoman Kim Kapp said.
When the owner arrived, he found the restaurant’s side door had been pried open, and a safe was missing, Kapp said.
Officers responded to the business to take a report the next morning, dispatch logs show. Detectives are following up.
The burglary was captured on surveillance camera. The footage, which the restaurant shared on Facebook, shows the suspect, who is hooded and wearing gloves, enter a kitchen before going out of view. They re-emerge walking the opposite direction and carrying a safe.
Owner Charles Bibens said in another posted video that the thief didn’t get much — about $150, a booklet of checks and some gift cards. He said he has an idea of the suspect’s identity, too.
“We got you on camera, so just know that,” Bibens said.
