Lottery Tickets, Cigarettes Stolen From LG Store

Someone burglarized the Shell Easy Stop convenience store on US 77 on the north side of La Grange Sunday night or early Monday morning, Nov. 22 or 23.

The only items taken were five lottery tickets and five cartons of cigarettes. Gilbreath said whomever was responsible dropped the cigarettes in the parking lot. They got away with the lottery tickets, however.

Two of the tickets were cashed at a convenience store in Houston around 2:30 a.m. on Monday, Gilbreath said. Accordingly, Gilbreath said the burglary must have happened between 11:30 p.m., when the store closed, and around 1:30 a.m.

If anyone saw anything suspicious at the Easy Stop, report it to police by calling (979) 968-5806.
