High River RCMP are looking into a theft that happened early Tuesday morning at Jaffery Optical on Macleod Trail.

An alarm was tripped about 3:25 in the morning and, when they arrived, police found the front door busted out.

Staff Sergeant Robin Alexander says thieves made off with about 300 eye glass frames and managed to  remove the hard drive from the video recording equipment.

He says the responding officers saw a vehicle in the area that had been reported stolen from Calgary but it has not yet been recovered.
