The business sustained some damage during the breakin.
Anyone who has any information in relation to the break and entry is asked to contact the RNC at 729-8000 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). You can also provide information anonymously on the NL Crime Stoppers Website at www.nlcrimestoppers.com.





I don't think anybody is saying that the crime isn't terrible or the that the person shouldn't be punished appropriately, however you're definition of "appropriate punishment" seems to be getting stuck in a window and dying this horrible death. A bit disproportionate to the crime don't you think?
