(AP) Burglars across from the sheriff's office and city jail forced entry into the St Louis County Welfare Department safe early today. Loss appears under $100 in change with about $50,000 in food stamps untouched. The department had about $8,000 in cash stored late Wednesday afternoon. Police say the burglars used a long force to breach the fireproof safe and left empty pop bottles nearby. The break-in was found by maintenance worker Karl Schumann at 6:45 a.m. Police noted they abandoned a second safe after peeling away part of the bottom.
