2 south Sacramento burglaries involve vehicles crashing into businesses, police say
Two south Sacramento businesses were hit by burglars who used vehicles to smash through storefronts early Wednesday morning, police said.
Officers responded just before 3:45 a.m. to the 7100 block of 24th Street in the Golf Course Terrace neighborhood after reports of a vehicle crashing into a business, Sacramento police spokesperson Officer Allison Smith said.
Investigators found a vehicle had been driven through the front door of Wayne’s Wok Chinese restaurant. A burglary report was taken, Smith said.
Less than an hour later, about 4:30 a.m., officers responded to the 1400 block of Meadowview Road in the Meadowview neighborhood after a burglar alarm sounded, Smith said.
At that location, officers found a vehicle had also been driven into a Baskin-Robbins ice cream shop. Officers documented the burglary and generated a second report, Smith said.
The two businesses are about 1½ miles apart.
“At this time it’s unconfirmed if these two burglaries involved the same vehicle,” Smith said, adding “Burglary detectives will be investigating these further.”
No arrests or suspect information had been released as of Wednesday.
