Police believe someone broke into an Ypsilanti Township Burger King by climbing in the drive-thru window sometime Sunday night and proceeded to steal coins from a donation jar.

Deputies from the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office were called Monday to the fast food restaurant at 823 E. Michigan Ave. for a report of a burglary, according to a news release.

"The suspect (or suspects) forced open the drive-thru window to gain entry into the business," the release stated. "Once inside they stole coins from a donation jar and then fled the area."

Police do not have any suspects at this time. Further information was not immediately available.
