POLICE are appealing for information after Legends bar was burgled overnight.
Just before 8am this morning (Friday, November 13) Merseyside Police received a report of a burglary at the business premises on Ormskirk Street in St Helens town centre.
It was further reported that a man entered the premises at around 5.40am and took the till and several bottles of alcohol from the property.
Damage was caused to the front door and windows of the premises during the incident.
The suspect is described as a man in his 40s, wearing grey pants with a black coat that had a logo on it and a baseball cap.
Detective Inspector James Rotheram said: “We are in the very early stages of our investigation and are appealing for anyone with information to come forward.
“Our officers are currently carrying CCTV enquires in the area and crime scene investigators are currently at the premises to help identify the suspect.
“Although this happened early in the morning, the premises is located on a busy road so if you were driving on Ormskirk Street and have a dashcam camera fitted in your vehicle, please check to see if you captured anything. Similarly, if you live in the area and saw anything, let us know.
“Burglaries can have a devastating economic impact on our local businesses. When items are stolen it can impact the livelihoods of those who work there and also the people who use the service.
“We remain committed to supporting our local businesses and will continue working with the owners to find any suspects involved.”
