Bur­glars broke in­to Thack­o­or­dass Ser­vice Sta­tion in Gon­za­les Vil­lage, Guapo, on Wednes­day night, tar­get­ing a se­cu­ri­ty safe. De­spite their ef­forts to breach the safe, they left emp­ty-hand­ed.

Po­lice said an anony­mous caller alert­ed the Guapo Po­lice Sta­tion at around 3:39 am on Thurs­day.

Up­on ar­rival, man­ag­er Bran­don Thack­o­or­dass re­port­ed that the sta­tion’s alarm and CCTV sys­tem had no­ti­fied him of in­trud­ers in­side the build­ing. The of­fi­cers in­spect­ed the premis­es and found all doors, win­dows, and walls in­tact. How­ev­er, they dis­cov­ered a hole in the ceil­ing that the bur­glars had used to gain en­try.

In­side Room One, po­lice found the se­cu­ri­ty safe. The bur­glars had moved the safe and at­tempt­ed to cut it open, leav­ing vis­i­ble marks from their tools. De­spite their ef­forts, the safe re­mained sealed, and noth­ing was stolen.

Of­fi­cers from the South West­ern Di­vi­sion­al Task Force con­duct­ed a thor­ough search for the sus­pects, but the bur­glars man­aged to evade cap­ture. In­ves­ti­ga­tions are on­go­ing.
