According to an MPD incident report, officers arrived at the liquor store on W. Gorham Street at 4:48 a.m. to find the front entryway shattered. Video surveillance footage showed a man breaking the door with a large rock after he unsuccessfully tried to force his way in using his shoulder and feet.
