Thieves take food from Subway

Des Moines police said the burglars, who struck late Saturday night or early Sunday morning, took 6 pounds of ham, 4 pounds of turkey, 8 pounds of roast beef, 10 pounds of cold cuts, 12 pounds of cheese, a case of beverages, 96 cookies and four to six loaves of bread, the Des Moines Register reported Tuesday.

Investigators said the thieves also apparently made sandwiches for themselves before leaving. They said the culprits broke into the restaurant through a drive-through window.
