Popular Vegan Bakery Burglarized in Pennsylvania

Earlier this week, thousands of dollars were stolen from premier vegan bakery Vegan Treats.

On late Sunday night or early Monday morning, Vegan Treats bakery in Bethlehem, PA was robbed of roughly $5,000 in an apparent burglary, lehighvalleylive.com reports. Owner Danielle Konya noticed a problem while entering the store on Tuesday morning, which police later found to be due to damage caused to the shop’s doorknob from within. Although the store’s video surveillance system did not provide any leads, police plan to survey all footage carefully for clues. Bakery manager Joy Grant hopes that neighbors with any information will come forward and help police with the case, and tells the local news source, “It was a lot of money, especially for a small business like us.”
