Moraga TJ Maxx Store Burgled; Thieves Knew Combination To Store Safe

Not long after five of its employees were arrested for store again finds itself the subject of a police report, this time after someone with apparent knowledge of store operations made their way inside, deactivated security measures and took cash from a locked safe.

Moraga police were called to the store March 6 after a person or persons unknown entered the location without use of force. Police said the thief or thieves turned off the store alarm and security cameras and gained entry into a locked safe without using force — taking an undetermined amount of cash.

Police said physical evidence was obtained, however, and that the investigation into the incident is continuing. Five former store employees were arrested for investigation of embezzlement last month.
