Surveillance Video Shows Tulsa Donut Shop Break-In

We're getting a look at surveillance video tonight from a break-in at a Tulsa donut shop. Detectives say the woman acted strangely and got away with cash.

Police say that woman climbed in through the drive-thru window at Brown's Donuts, and it happened in the middle of the night.

Video from Brown's Donuts near Yale and Pine the day after Christmas shows the suspected thief is able to slide open the drive-thru window and crawl through.

For several minutes, the woman wanders around the empty shop, and even looks out several windows. Police say she eventually grabs cash and escapes off camera.

Owner: Money Taken In Tulsa Donut Shop Burglary

Detectives investigating this case say she may have gotten away just in time.

"This was a second-degree commercial burglary. There was nobody at the business at that time at one o'clock in the morning, I think donut shops were getting pretty close to people showing up and making donuts I would imagine," said Sergeant Tim Means, Tulsa Police.

Police say they've gotten a few tips so far, but they still need your help in identifying that woman.
