You’ll probably want to mute that video clip, as the sound is mostly a quite-shrill burglary alarm. But that’s what was happening at the Admiral restaurant/bar Arthur’s at about 4:45 am Saturday, says proprietor Rebecca Rice, who provided the video, explaining that she called 911 when she got an alarm alert and saw the burglar on her live cameras. Police responded quickly, she says, and detained someone nearby, but they couldn’t be positively identified and so had to be released. She adds:
The (burglar) got away with cash and a couple of laptops, and they caused serious damage to our front and office doors. Thankfully, no one was hurt, and we were able to reopen the same day — but it’s a heavy hit at an already difficult time for small businesses like ours.
We’re grateful to nearby businesses who shared camera footage and neighbors who checked in. Hoping someone might recognize the person or have additional information.
If you have any information, the police report # to refer to is 25-171464.
