GRIDLEY, CA (MPG) – As if operating a restaurant in the year of COVID hasn’t been enough of a challenge, a local favorite can add another hardship to their 2020 survival list.

Last week, owners of Gridley’s Rail House Pub and Grill, Tim and Kari Trusheim, got quite a shock the morning of November 6^th when they arrived to find that their restaurant had been broken into.

Surveillance footage shows two suspects, presumably males, entering and rummaging throughout the restaurant and office at around 4:00 in the morning. They are believed to have gained access to Rail House by breaking a lower window panel of the large floor to ceiling and crawling through. Reportedly the thieves caused a lot of damage to the building, were able to get away with a very large amount of cash, products and the businesses checkbook.

The Trusheims have shared images of the suspects on their Facebook page and have asked for the public’s help in identifying them, noting unique sneakers. They also said that no one should accept checks from the business unless they are expressly being written from and by Tim or Kari.  If anyone has any information on the burglary, please contact the Gridley Police Department. 

Officer Jared Cooley says the incident is currently under investigation but that there is no additional information at the time of this article.
