SUBJECT: Business Burglary

Date: February 19, 2004

On February 19^th at 4:15 am, the Post Falls Police Department responded to a business alarm in the area of I90 and Pleasantview.  When officers arrived they discovered the front window of the business had been smashed and it appeared that entry to the business had been made.  Post Falls detectives were called to the scene to assist in processing the crime scene for evidence.  With the assistance of surveillance video from the store, it was determined that what appears to be three individuals 15-20 years of age, had entered the store and stole approximately 50 to 80 cartons of cigarettes.

Linked to this press release from our web site, (www.postfallspolice.com), is surveillance footage from the store showing the suspect vehicle driving by the front doors. Also it shows the entry and actual burglary of the store.  The suspect vehicle is described as an early 80’s white Chevy Suburban with a Blue or Gray decorative design on the side that runs the entire length of the vehicle.  The Suburban also has a luggage rack on top and possible tinted windows.

The store owners have requested that their store not be identified at this time.  Any information about the possible suspects or the suspect vehicle should be forwarded to Detective Kenner or Lt. McLean at the Post Falls Police Department (208) 773-3517, or you can access our anonymous tip page below.
