Bakersfield Police said three men, thought to be in their 20s, broke into the store around 4:30 Friday morning.

The owner showed us surveillance video to help catch the thieves. The video shows three thieves pulling up in a white four-door car, smashing then going through a window, using a red bin to load tobacco products and shoving things into their pockets before leaving through the broken window.

 

The owner said he recently opened the gas station and has over forty surveillance cameras on the property.
