Woman scares off two burglars

COEUR d'ALENE - A Coeur d'Alene woman scared off two men attempting to burglarize Commercial Printing Co. Tuesday night.

The woman was walking to her car, parked near the business located at 504 E. Lakeside Ave., when she heard a loud bang. According to a Coeur d'Alene Police Department report, the woman then heard the sound of glass shattering as she continued to walk toward her vehicle.

She saw a small black pickup truck with its engine running, backed to the northwest side of Commercial Printing Co. and, according to the report, continued walking toward the business.

The front door, according to the report, had been shattered and the woman told officers she looked inside and saw a white male with a black hoodie pulled over his head.

When the suspect noticed the woman, she told officers she immediately ran to her car and drove off. While on the phone with the police department, she drove back by the store to ensure she had the right business name.

"As she drove back by, the males were gone and the trunk was gone as well," the report states.

Officers arrived at the scene shortly after and cleared the business before contacting the owners of Commercial Printing Co. According to the report, the owners walked through the business and told officers nothing appeared to be missing.

Both suspects were described as being white males in their late 20s. According to the report, both men were wearing black hoodies.
