Bold Thieves Knock Off AT&T Store in Kennewick

It seems like some burglars are getting more and more brazen in their attempts to steal valuables in the Tri-Cities. Now, somebody, or 'somebodies' blasted through the door of a cellphone outlet.

Authorities have not said if they're pursuing more than one suspect, or if they were captured on video, but are investigating a destructive break in at the AT&T store on Columbia Center Boulevard.

Around 10:15pm, police report somebody smashed in the front door and used that to gain access to the store. A number of electronic devices and accessories were taken.  Anyone with any information is asked to call (509)-628-0333, the Dispatch line, and all leads are confidential.

It's presumed police will be watching pawn shops and on-line ads for new cellular or electronic sales ads. Often, thieves turn around and try to sell the stolen goods.
