A burglary crew in a pickup truck rammed its way into the Berkeley Cotopaxi on Fourth Street early Monday morning and stole more than $20,000 in merchandise, authorities report.

Limited details were available as of publication time. 

But police said they got a call from a concerned passer-by at about 6:30 a.m. about the broken glass storefront at 1915 Fourth St., just north of University Avenue.

From surveillance footage, officers determined that two men and a woman had backed the truck through the glass doors at about 1 a.m. 

For some reason, no alarm went off to alert authorities.

The investigation is ongoing, [Berkeley police](https://www.berkeleyscanner.com/topic/berkeley-police-department/) said.

Shortly before publication time, no one picked up the shop phone when TBS attempted to learn more.

A message on Google noted that the store was temporarily closed.
