Police investigating after stolen car smashes into southeast Colorado Springs dispensary

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) – Colorado Springs police say suspects drove into a southeast Colorado Springs marijuana dispensary overnight, damaging the storefront and leaving a stolen vehicle behind.

According to the Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD), at around 12:39 a.m. on Tuesday, July 1, officers were dispatched to a burglary alarm at a business in the 2400 block of South Academy Boulevard, just north of the intersection with Astrozon Boulevard.

When they arrived on scene, officers reported that a vehicle had "backed into the business and had broken through the front door."

A KRDO13 crew arrived on scene and saw that the business was Magnolia Road dispensary.

The suspects had fled the scene, but left the vehicle driven through the storefront behind – later identified as an unreported stolen vehicle, police said.

CSPD says it looks like the suspects were not able to gain entry into the store, so no merchandise was stolen.
