Question Robbery

I am surprised, unless I missed it, not reading about the robbery of the
restaurant in Southern Trace. I believe the name is/was Adolfo's?? As I
understand it on Sunday night or Monday morning someone broke the window
on the side with a brick, stole the money from the cash register and safe.
Not sure what else they got. But it will be a few days before they reopen.
Was this in the newspaper or on TOTV and I missed it.

Exclamation Robbery

I did not hear it. Stopped in on Monday Morning and the Owner's were there and said they were closed for a few days because of the robbery. THey showed us the broken window. Said they were robbed the night before and not sure when they broke in? Said they got all the money left in the cash register and safe..Not sure what they got beyond that.

Sounds like a burglary not a robbery.

It was Gandolfo's in Southern Trace Shopping Center. The ladies at Crispers were talking about it. They said detectives were asking if they had heard or seen anything and they did not. It appears that it happened in the early hours of Monday morning. They are checking out the surveilance cameras in the parking lot.

Talking Congrats

I am not really invested in the usage of terms, (e.g. Robbery/Burglary). As a
Professor once said, if you understand the concept that is what is important
and I think all understood the concept that was being described.
OK it was burglarized..I hope that closes the concerns over that issue..

If they broke into the safe, sounds like an inside job. Hope not too much was lost. Gandolfo's is a pretty busy restaurant.

Default Not covered in the Paper?

Hate that there was a burglary, but equally concerned that it might not have been covered in The Daily Sun. Did I just miss it?

It is not a Robbery, it is a commercial burglary. A robbery is when an individual uses some type of force and puts a victim in fear to steal an item of value.
