Burglars hit two Bali shops

DENPASAR, Bali: Two stores here were burglarized early on
Wednesday morning, with thieves escaping with about Rp 100
million worth of goods.

The first burglary took place at the UD Bagus Murah store on
Jl. Setiabudi.

The thieves broke open the iron locks of the front door and
made way with dozens of new tools such as electronic saws and
grindstones.

Losses were estimated at Rp 75 million.

"We suspect the burglary took place around 1 a.m., so they
(burglars) had a lot of time to transport the stolen goods. The
theft was not discovered until about 8 a.m.," a police officer
said.

The second burglary took place in the Sanur area around 5:30
a.m. when thieves broke into the Imba Leather Store.

About 30 leather jackets and 100 wristwatches were stolen.

The total loss of the burglary was estimated at between Rp 30
million and Rp 40 million.

Sanur Police chief Snr. Insp. Husein Abubakar was confident
the burglary would be solved soon. (zen)
