APD Investigating "Smash And Grabs"
Akron police are investigating two separate "smash and grab" incidents that happened overnight.
The first incident was reported at a BP gas station in the 1600 block of Copley Road where a vehicle backed into the building's front doors. Several cartons of cigarettes were stolen from the store.
About an hour later, a similar incident happened at the Ohio and Cash Drive Thru in the 700 block of South Arlington Street. A vehicle was driven into the garage door.
The suspects got away with some cash and -- once again -- several cartons of cigarettes.
