THE BRONX — Robbers broke into a shuttered Belmont bar Thursday morning and dug a hole through one of its walls to get into a neighboring bodega before stealing $200, police said.
While smashing through the wall between Ivanny Grocery & Deli and the Clara House Bar and Grill, they may have caused part of a roof to collapse, law-enforcement sources said.
The NYPD, FDNY and DOB responded to the roof collapse at 605 E. 180th St., near Belmont Avenue, around 7:30 a.m., the NYPD said.
The NYPD requested a “structural stability inspection following (a) commercial burglary where (an) exterior wall has been broken through,” according to the DOB website.
Nobody had been arrested by Thursday afternoon.
