PROFESSIONAL BURGLARS CONTINUE TO TRAVEL ACROSS THE COUNTRY – AUBURN, WA

On 11/7/23, at 8:45 a.m., a burglary occurred at a kiosk inside of a mall. Three unknown males were observed near the location, with two subjects gaining entry as the other, subject 3, acted as a lookout.  Both subjects entered the location and gained access to several showcases using a large screwdriver, removing the contents of the showcases.  The subjects loaded the merchandise into bags, while also attempting to remove the safe from the location, which they were unsuccessful in doing. Later, it was also found that an unknown female subject was nearby acting as an additional lookout.  All subjects exited the location with the merchandise.
