Burnaby bakery 'gutted' by destructive break-in

Burnaby RCMP are investigating a break-in at Mon Paris Patisserie in Metrotown early Monday morning.

Police are investigating an early morning break-in at a Burnaby bakery Monday.

Officers were called to at 4396 Beresford St. for reports of an alarm at 3:20 a.m., according to Burnaby RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Mike Kalanj.

Upon arrival, they found evidence someone had broken into the Metrotown business.

“They smashed the glass doors, and, as far as we can tell, they went directly to the cash register and took whatever they could find,” Kalanj said.

After shattering the door, the culprits took just $300, according to a post on the bakery’s Instagram account.

“I am gutted,” said the post.

Opened in 2017 by chef Elena Krasnova, Mon Paris specializes in pastries, chocolates and desserts.
