Cash, equipment reportedly stolen during early-morning burglary at Bellingham barbershop
Owners of a Bellingham barbershop reported a burglary at the business that included the theft of business equipment and thousands of dollars in cash.
The burglar broke into Barber Shack at 2500 Cedarwood Ave. through a back window around 4:40 a.m. Wednesday and rummaged through the business, staying away from the front of the store near the large windows, according to owner Jared Jones Valentine.
Jones said the burglar also damaged personal items, including turning on a hot foam machine, causing it to burn out and break before the break-in was discovered.
No suspect has been identified, according to Megan Peters with the Bellingham Police Department, who suggested related charges might include second-degree burglary, second-degree theft and third-degree malicious mischief.
