NORTH STAFFORD — A new Virginia ABC store opened at the North Stafford Complex shopping center last year, next to a Walmart Neighborhood Market.
This morning, it was the target of smash and grab thieves.
“…a security monitoring company reported hearing the sound of glass breaking and subjects entering the business. Upon arrival, deputies observed a broken glass window…Â Security footage revealed three subjects breaking into the business. They filled two duffle bags with numerous bottles of alcohol and then fled the scene. Deputies canvassed the area and did not locate the suspects,” states a Stafford sheriff’s spokeswoman.
Deputies were called to store early this morning but didn’t find any suspects. The sheriff’s office did not release any of the security footage it states it reviewed.
The store opened in July 2018 and measures 2,800 square feet and its product selection spans 1,700 items, including 308 vodkas, 316 bourbons, 178 cordials, 165 rums, and 142 tequilas.
