From David Richie:
A muscular bandit reportedly yanked the cash box out of the Coinmaster machine at about 7:30 p.m. Tuesday in the Safeway market on MIssouri Flat Road in Placerville.
Store managers and El Dorado County sheriff's deputies were left with surveillance camera footage that shows the man wheeling the box out of the store. The unidentified bandit escaped with $2,454 in change, according to a sheriff's incident summary.
The suspect is described as white, well-built, weighing about 220 pounds, wearing a dark, short-sleeved buttoned shirt, blue jeans and sunglasses. The suspect's height was not included in the description.
