Naples Shell Service Station at 5788 F. Second St. reported a burglary in which burglars used a hacksaw to cut a locked safe from an outside service island. The safe contained about $1,400.

Separate thefts included a car radio stolen from a Long Beach resident and a Cerritos store clerk robbed of about $30 after being warned to stay down. A Lakewood deputy reported a burglar demanded a generator at Atlantic Auto Supply and a separate bar entry yielded $85 in coins after an early Monday break-in. The burglar left a beer can behind.
