NAUGATUCK Police are investigating an early morning burglary at a liquor store on New Haven Road.
Police said Salem Wine and Liquors, 628 New Haven Road, was broken into at about 4:30 a.m. Wednesday. The suspects appeared to pry the front door open and stole several bottles of liquor, police said.
The front window of the Allstate Insurance office next to liquor store was smashed, too. Police believe the suspects broke into the Allstate office before the liquor store, but it’s unclear if anything was taken from the office.
Police said the quality of surveillance footage of the incident is poor, making it difficult to get a description of the suspects and their vehicle.
