The alarm at Ebey Bowl, Coupeville’s bowling alley on Terry Road, went off at 8:49 p.m. Monday, but no one heard it.

That’s because the burglar had cut the phone lines before he jim-mied the back door open with a crowbar, bowling alley owner Matt Iverson said.

The thief stole candy, beer, li-quor, a fan, $300 in cash and an employee’s laptop, Iverson said. The value of the items taken has yet to be determined, he said. Oth-er than the cut phone lines, bro-ken door and broken lock on the liquor cabinet, nothing else was damaged, he said.

“The alarm went off, but it didn’t go anyplace,” Iverson said, explaining that the burglar waited to see if anyone responded before he entered the building.

The man’s actions inside the bowling alley were caught on sur-veillance video. The video also shows the suspect driving up to the back door of the bowling alley in a pickup truck.

“We don’t know who he is, but we can see his face for a couple of seconds,” Iverson said.

The suspect wore a hooded sweatshirt that hid his face during most of his 10 minutes inside the alley. The hood fell back briefly, exposing his face to the camera.

A snapshot pulled from the film was too small for publication

in print, but can be seen online at whidbeyexaminer.com.

“We need the public’s help to identify the suspect,” Sheriff’s Office spokesman Det. Ed Wal-lace said.

The suspect is a male, medi-um build between 5 feet 8 inches and 5 feet 10 inches tall. He wore gloves during the break-in, leav-ing no fingerprints, Wallace said.

Iverson learned of the break-

in Tuesday morning after a cof-fee group that gathers at the bowl-ing alley saw the damaged door and contacted him. Iverson hired Whidbey Custom Homes to re-place the bowling alley’s back door, including the door’s frame.

Ebey Bowl is closed on Tues-days, so the business won’t suffer any losses during repairs, Iverson said.

Someone also attempted to break in to the Pizza Factory res-taurant on South Main Street the same evening.

The phone lines were cut, ac-cording to owner Becky Law-less. But because the alarm sys-tem is not connected to the phone system, the alarm sounded and a Coupeville deputy marshal re-sponded.

The only damage to the Pizza Factory was to the cut phone lines, Lawless said.

Ebey Bowl and the Pizza Fac-tory are the only two business-es that reported a break-in or at-tempted break-in Monday night, Wallace said.

Anyone who has information about the burglary at Ebey Bowl should contact the Island County Emergency Services Communica-tions Center dispatch at 360-679-9567 or e-mail tips@co.island.wa.us.

Anyone who has information about the attempted break-in at Pizza Factory should contact the Coupeville Marshal’s Office at 360-678-4461 Ext. 1.
