Another popular video game has been broken into in Salina, and this time the haul was $4,660.

Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning that at approximately 6:30 a.m. on July 23, the Dragon's Ascent video game at the Pilot Travel Center, 1944 N. Ninth Street, was broken into and $4,660 stolen from its cash box.

The top part of the game was removed so the cash box could be accessed, he said.

Surveillance video from the travel center shows a Black man wearing a white hat and white t-shirt placing a sticker over the surveillance camera just before the game was broken into.

On July 7, a Dragon's Ascent game at Flying J Travel Center, 2250 N. Ohio Street, was broken into and $850 in cash was stole. Additionally, $2,500 worth of damage was done to the game.

On June 1, $500 was stolen from a Dragon's Ascent game at The Alley, 115 E. Ash Street. A Salina man was arrested in connection to that case.
