Steamboat Springs — More than $2,000 worth of merchandise was stolen from a downtown Steamboat Springs store in a burglary Tuesday night or Wednesday morning, police said.
Quiksilver Steamboat manager Derek Cullen said it appears that the burglar broke out the front glass door, walked into the store and picked through the merchandise.
"They just entered, and it looks like they walked to one of our watch cases and tried to break into that, with no success," he said.
Store workers still were figuring out what exactly was stolen, but Cullen said it appears they took at least several shirts and four longboards, valued at more than $2,000. Estimates for the window and other damage were not totaled Wednesday night.
Cullen said the store opened a half-hour later than usual Wednesday, but the store will remain open as repairs continue.
Steamboat Springs Police Department Sgt. Rich Brown said it appears the burglary happened between 8:30 p.m. Tuesday and when the store opened in the morning. Officers took a report and continue to investigate.
Fourth of July Parade full; volunteers still accepted
The Steamboat Springs Chamber Resort Association announced Wednesday that the Fourth of July Parade is full, meaning no more entries can be accepted. People interested in volunteering to help run the parade can call Kristi at 875-7006 or stop by the visitor center at 125 Anglers Drive.
