AUTHORITIES INVESTIGATING RESTAURANT BURGLARIES IN BRENHAM, BURLESON CO., BRYAN

  

A Brenham donut shop is one of numerous restaurants and food establishments around the area that have reported burglaries this week.

Brenham police say two men wearing dark clothing and facial coverings forced entry into Max Donuts on Market Street early Thursday morning, just before 1:30 a.m.  An undisclosed amount of cash was reported stolen.

Meanwhile, six restaurants were burglarized overnight Thursday in Burleson County, including four in Somerville, one in Caldwell and one in the county.  Authorities are investigating break-ins at Lorena’s Taco Shop, Mama’s Kitchen, Moe’s BBQ and Neinast Restaurants in Somerville, the Garden Spot Café in Caldwell and La Bamba Mexican Grill & Bar in the county.

Another four restaurants in Bryan were broken into early Wednesday morning, those being Imperial Chinese & Sushi, Cotton Patch Café, Mr. Hamburger and Babe’s Doughnut & Coffee Shop.

Brenham police believe the incidents are linked, due to the same pattern of behavior and suspect description.  However, investigators are communicating with other agencies to confirm if they are connected.
