RANGELEY — Police are investigating a forced entry into the Loony Bin convenience store and gas station on Main Street that was reported early Monday.
Thieves made off with an undisclosed amount of cash and other items, police Chief Dennis Leahy said Tuesday. An employee reported the burglary at 5:09 a.m.
Entry was gained through a door, Leahy said.
