It's a bizarre crime, that has many shaking their heads tonight.

Police say burglars somehow made off with a large safe belonging to a popular Lexington restaurant.

It happened Sunday night at Alfalfa, on Main Street in Downtown Lexington.

The safe weighs more than 100 pounds and had thousands of dollars inside.

What's more, the restaurant is within sight of both the Fayette County Courthouse and a police station.

So far, police do not have any suspects, but workers at Alfalfa say it's possible the burglary was an inside job.

Alfalfa workers say they didn't see any forced entry into the restaurant.
