TIGARD, Ore. (KPTV) - Police are investigating an overnight break-in at a bar in Tigard, which was targeted in an armed robbery last month.

At about 4 a.m., officers responded to Foxy’s Bar & Lounge on Southwest Pacific Highway near Southwest Canterbury Lane after someone in the strip mall heard a commotion at the bar, then saw people yelling from a tan SUV in the parking lot.

The witness told FOX 12 she heard what sounded like a chain, and she believes at least one person was inside Foxy’s trying to yank out the ATM with a chain.

Police confirmed three suspects were trying to get the ATM but were not successful. The suspects were seen leaving in an Audi A4.

This is the second time in the last two weeks that Foxy’s on SW Pacific Highway has had to deal with crime.
