Hermann Police were looking for suspects Tuesday afternoon after three attempted burglaries in the span of a few hours. The burglary attempts were made at Trapper's Grill at 4th and Market Streets, the Downtown Deli on E. First Street, and the United Methodist Church on W. 16th Street and Route 100, according to Hermann Police.
Officers responded to Trapper's Tuesday morning, where they found a door window broken in an apparent attempt to get inside, police said. It did not appear the suspects were successful in gaining entry.
As police were clearing the scene at Trapper's, a similar problem was reported at the Downtown Deli. Glass on the Deli's front door was found broken, and evidence suggested an unknown person or persons entered the building and manipulated a cash register inside, police said. The register had been emptied the night before by employees. Nothing was reported missing.
Around 1:00 p.m. Tuesday, police were called to the Methodist Church for another broken window. Police did not believe anyone made entry. It's likely the three incidents were related, Police Chief Frank Tennant said.
