On the night of July 14th, the Wallace and Area Museum was broken into and robbed. The thieves violently broke into the shed on the museum property and targeted heavy machinery and groundskeeping equipment, stealing upwards of $11,000 worth of equipment purchased with funds raised by the community. “It was very much a professional job,” stated Robert Small, volunteer and board member. Small and Roberta Scott, another volunteer, have taken away important lessons from this break in, which they wished to share with the community. They say it is important to implement security by design. https://lnkd.in/gZM9Mg9C
