Thief steals cash boxes from Watford Legion
April 22, 2024
Lambton OPP are investigating a break-in at the Watford Legion.
Police say when Legion members arrived at the Nauvoo Road building April 13, they called police reporting a break-in.
Police have found someone kicked in a window and entered the building early that morning. He took four cash boxes with an undisclosed amount of money.
Police describe the suspect as a white man, 20 to 30-years old, medium build wearing black and white running shoes, dark pants and a dark hoody with “Burnard Builders Inc” written down each arm.
Police are asking anyone in the area with surveillance video around the Legion to contact them.
Tips can also be left by calling CrimeStoppers.
Officials with the Watford Legion did not want to comment, however, the building has been closed since the break in. It’s scheduled to reopen Tuesday.
