Two local businesses robbed; police find missing cash drawer in woods

Police are searching for suspects in the break-in and robbery of two east-side businesses. \nEarly Wednesday morning, Bloomington police responded to an alarm at Midas Auto Service Experts in the 2600 block of East Third Street, said Capt. Joe Qualters. \nA metal pane on the garage door had been pried out. Officers found the lights of the vehicles inside turned on and drawers opened in the office, Qualter said, reading from a police report. The cash drawer was also missing. \nWhile searching the area, officers found a cash drawer in the woods behind the business, but it was not the drawer missing from Midas. Officers then checked the adjacent Jiffy Lube Oilube Center and found the rear garage panels kicked in. The business was "ransacked," Qualters said, reading from a police report. The cash drawer found in the woods was the one missing from the Jiffy Lube. There are no suspects at this time.
