Freson Bros. market in Drumheller was the target of a break-in during the early morning hours of Tuesday, February 15.
Drumheller RCMP received a call at approximately 4:30 a.m. for a break-in alarm and discovered a considerable amount of damage to the main and interior doors of the building.
“The store opened for business at 8 a.m. after the staff cleaned up following an early morning illegal entry,” says Freson Bros. store manager, Dale Goulder.
Mr. Goulder notes the thieves “made off” with the store’s ATM, though is grateful there were no injuries.
Drumheller RCMP Staff Sergeant Ed Bourque tells the Mail it is believed there are two suspects involved, though no description is available at this time as police are still investigating and reviewing security camera footage.
It is believed an early 2000 model burgundy Ford pick-up with an aftermarket front bumper was involved and, considering the extensive damage to the building it is believed the vehicle was used and could show signs of a collision.
