Video: Burglar Drills Wawa Safe
The attempted theft at a Bala Cynwyd convenience store was caught on surveillance camera before dawn July 31.
Surveillance video provided by Lower Merion Police Department shows the July 31 attempted Wawa burglary in action.
The burglar busts through the wall of the Bala Cynwyd store about 3:15 a.m., then spends about an hour drilling into a safe from various angles before crawling back out the hole when a store manager arrives.
Patch has edited the footage only for speed, to slow down when the man's face shows and to speed up the rest.
If you recognize the burglar, call Lower Merion police at 610-649-1000.

I'm surprised he didn't set the place on fire.
Post the brand name of that safe; I want one that tough to crack.
