At approximately 1:30 a.m. on July 5 two white males entered the laundry mat. They cut the lock off of the machine and then used keys to open the pop machine.
According to the police, the two were efficient and familiar with the workings of the Pepsi machine. They appeared to have a number of different keys with them.
“Anyone with information should call the Ada Police Department at 419-634-0010. You may remain anonymous,” said Harnishfeger.
Additional information regarding the break-in: Several machines were also broken into in Logan County and specifically downtown Lakeview with very similar tactics.
