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.
Attempts to break into a safe and an ATM were unsuccessful. Damage was done to both, he said.
Police are reviewing surveillance videotapes. They collected evidence at the scene, including a crowbar that was taken to the Maine State Police Crime Laboratory for DNA analysis, Leahy said.
Franklin County sheriff’s Cpl. Nate Bean and his police dog, Diesel, helped with the investigation, he said.
Police are following leads in the case.
