Scott tells us that a string of dispensary break-ins from Ballard to Green Lake ended at 6 this morning at MMJ Co-op, 8251 Lake City Way. He tells us:
Evidently, the burglars didn’t get away with much, but did manage to do a lot of property damage and create enough noise to warrant a call and get units to the scene. It didn’t help when the perps were pulled over at Lake City Way and 15th Ave NE with evidence in the car.
It was the end of a long string of early-morning break-ins of other dispensaries that started in Ballard and Green Lake. Chalk it up to greed or exhaustion, but Maple Leaf was the end of line to a posse of petty thieves. As it was said at the scene a few times “It’s not the smart ones that get caught”.
The owners of MMJ Co-op are cleaning up, and it will be open and business as usual.
Greenside was hit on Sunday the 9th of September. My husband drove past there and saw the smashed window early Sunday morning and called it in.
It looks like Greenside Medical on LCW might have been hit recently too. I saw a window boarded up today when I drove by.
