Police in Beverly Hills are investigating a burglary at approximately 3 a.m. on Feb. 23 at a COVID-19 testing site at 9900 Santa Monica Blvd.
Lt. Giovanni Trejo said the Beverly Hills Police Department received notification of a burglar alarm being activated at the site and officers were dispatched to the location. Nobody was found in the building, but officers determined a burglary had occurred and a safe was missing. Trejo said there was no sign of forced entry and investigators are trying to determine how someone gained access into the building.
The testing site is operated by 911 COVID Testing, a private for-profit company that operates similar sites on Sepulveda Boulevard across from the Getty Center, in Santa Monica and near Los Angeles International Airport. The company charges a fee and provides rapid testing for travel and entry into special events. Trejo could not confirm what was inside the safe, but media reports stated it contained $4,000-$5,000 in cash. Representatives of 911 COVID Testing could not be reached for comment.
Trejo said the investigation is ongoing and detectives will be checking security cameras in the area in the search for suspects. Anyone with information is urged to call the BHPD at (310)285-2125.
