Published: July 3, 2009

LAWRENCE — Thieves were in the CQP Bakery for six minutes Wednesday, but made off with a computer tower, monitor and keyboard, police said.

Leo Silva, plant manager of the 19 Blanchard St. bakery, captured the burglary on his computer, which he showed to Detective Brian Burokas.

The video begins at 2:33 a.m. and ends at 2:39 a.m. It shows a man and two women enter the plant and rattle doorknobs as they pass through. They duck inside a manager's office and reappear carrying the items, police said. Their faces are shielded, police said.

Silva reported that the last worker to leave locks up around 2 p.m., and takes the bakery truck. The break was reported at 10 a.m. Wednesday, police said.
