Early Morning Robbery at Moraga Center CVS
By Vera Kochan
It was a quiet Presidents Day holiday Feb. 18 in the Moraga Center until 6:59 a.m. when a screeching of tires followed by a store alarm signaled a break-in at the CVS Pharmacy located at 1480 Moraga Rd.
A witness spotted a truck pull open one of the pharmacy doors with a chain attached to the door handle.
According to Moraga Police Department Lt. Brian South, "The truck was stolen in Moraga. The multiple suspects were trying to steal the ATM machine inside. They were unsuccessful, but the machine suffered damage." CVS had no monetary loss, however it is unclear whether anything else was taken at this time.
South confirmed, "The stolen vehicle was recovered on Sanders Drive. We are currently going through video surveillance and traffic cam footage to collect more information."
