Springfield, IL (CAPITOL CITY NOW) -This week, Crime Stoppers is seeking information to help the Springfield Police Department to identify two individuals involved in a burglary.

On July 6, 2026, around 1:00 am two black male suspects forced entry to Farm and Home, 2804 N Dirksen in Springfield, through a rear door. Once inside the suspects ran to the gun counter and broke the glass with an unknown object. The suspects appear to get spooked and fled the store heading East. Both suspects were wearing all black.
