Toys R' Us Burglarized
Tigard Police officers were dispatched to the Toys R' Us Store located at 10065 SW Cascade Ave. in Tigard at approximately 1:40 a.m. this morning. As a Tigard Officer entered the parking lot of the store, two subjects were seen running from the area. A containment was quickly in place and a police K9 began a track for the suspects. Ultimately police were led over railroad tracks to an adjacent business park. Officers spotted the pair running and the K9 located them moments later hiding near a set of dumpsters.
Both suspects, 13 years of age from Beaverton, were taken into custody for allegedly vandalizing and burglarizing the Toys R' Us store. The parents of both boys were notified of the incident. Both boys were transported and lodged at Donald E. Long in Portland. They are both charged with Burglary II and Criminal Mischief II.
Police reports indicate the boys were attempting to steal an I-Pod from the store when they were discovered. Police located a large rock used to break the window on an outer door. The pair was attempting to force their way through a second set of glass doors into the merchandise area of the store when they observed police approaching, at which time they ran from the store. Neither suspect reported any injury.
