Lake Ridge, Va. –– A man with a baseball bat who police say climbed through the drive through window of a Dunkin Donuts, a shooting into a home and a home break in kept officers in Woodbridge busy this week.
At 1:55 a.m. Thursday, an employee at the doughnut restaurant on Old Bridge Road in Lake Ridge told police he saw a man with a walk up to the window.
That employee ran from the window to the parking lot, and the man then climbed in, took an undisclosed amount of cash, and then fled the scene with two other men who were waiting outside in a car, said Prince William police spokesman Jonathan Perok.
Police said two of the men were wearing ski masks, black jackets and blue latex gloves. A witness could not provide a description for the third man, police said.
Earlier that evening at 9:32 p.m. on Wednesday, police were called to the 3200 block of Chancellor Drive in Lake Ridge, after someone apparently fired a BB into a home there.
No one was hurt, said Perok.
And finally on the police beat, someone broke into a home under construction in the 15400 block of Ann Arden Avenue in Woodbridge, police said.
It happened between 4 p.m. Tuesday and 5 a.m. Wednesday.
An officer found a basement window had been shattered and appliances valued at $6,000 were missing.
