— from Sheriff Ron Krebs —

Over the last few weeks, San Juan Island has experienced a string of commercial burglaries on Mike’s Wine Bar, The American Legion, The San Juan Cheese Shop and Van Go’s Pizza.

Approximately $4000 has been taken from all of the businesses combined. At this time we have no suspects but do have a person of interest we need help in identifying.

In the video you can see as he gets close to the camera he is carrying what appears to be a pry bar which we believe is the one that was taken from the scene at the American Legion.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the San Juan County Sheriff’s Office at 360-378-4151.
