Show BEAVER OIL STATION IS ROBBED Murdock Oil Co. in Beaver was burglarized early Sunday morning of an indeterminate amount of currency and checks, said Beaver County Sheriff Lee R. Fillmore. Chase M. Murdock, owner, estimated loss at between $1,000 and $2,000, mostly in cash. Sheriff Fillmore said thieves gained entry by breaking a rear window and prying open an iron bar placed across it. He said the door of the safe was battered in and two cash registers were ripped open. The loss was discovered by Jess Cartwright, a store employe, em-ploye, when he opened the store at 7:30 a.m. |
