The Stearns County Sheriff's Department is cooperating in the investigation.

The break-in occurred in the early morning hours of Saturday, Nov. 22, at the Roscoe Bar, which also houses the Roscoe Post Office. Entry was made through the front door by smashing the window, according to the sheriff's office.

Once inside, the suspects stole many items, including some that are related to the post office.

The break-in occurred after the bar closed at 1:30 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 22. The broken front door was noticed around 6 a.m. that morning. The sheriff's department is also investigating two other incidents, both involving theft and vandalism and both around St. Martin, from that same night. The sheriff's department considers these incidents related.

They are seeking information from anyone who saw something suspicious on Saturday, Nov. 22, anyone with knowledge about the crime, or anyone who knows the whereabouts of any stolen property.
