DAIRY QUEEN INCIDENT DIFFERS FROM RASH OF OTHERS

Yesterday at approximately 5:53 a.m. police responded to an alarm​ at the Dairy Queen in Mount Dora at 2590 CR 500A.  

After clearing the front of the building and proceeding to the back, police discovered money on the floor and the office door appeared to be kicked in.  A perimeter was set and a K-9 unit was called to the scene.  The track lead to what appeared to be a Dairy Queen apron in the grassy area behind the restaurant.  
 
This burglary differs significantly from the rash of armed robberies at other Lake County businesses including McDonald’s, Denny’s, and Dollar General.   No surveillance video has been released yet.
