Robbed of Receipts Thief Escanes Last Saturday night be- tween 8 and 9 p.m., the rear door of the Thornhlll I.G.A. store was smashed open by a cleVer thief or thieves who: turned up the furnace heat, thereby steaming up the front window; took cover behind a large cardboard sign. and then coolly set to work and opened the safe in the win- dow, making off with the week-end receipts of ap‘- proximately $6,000. Mr. and Mrs. Ted Edwards, owners of the store, drove by the scene sometime before 8 o’clock that night, and when they saw the foggy win- dow they supposed the fur- nace had cooled off and that the window was 'frosted, passing by at 9:30 the same night they saw the window had cleared so returned to their home without entering the building. However, at 10 p.m., Mark‘ ham Township Police, mak- ing their usual rounds,, dis- covered the robbery when checking the store â€" but by this time the culprit had es- caped. Markham Township police. who are investigat- ing, said, “this was no am- ateur job. Whoever it was knew how to open the sale â€"â€" and do it quickly."
