Thieves broke into Wayne's Bar & Deli near Sulphur late August 4 or early August 5, 2019. Video from the owner shows that the business was entered through a hole that was cut into the side of the metal building that the business is in. Another video of the scene goes on to show that after entering, the criminals broke into several video poker machines inside of the business. It appears that a white or light-colored 4-door Ford F-150 pickup truck was used in the crime. The full extent of the damage done to the business is unclear and the value of what was stolen has not been disclosed.
