The University of Florida Police Department is investigating a burglary and motor vehicle theft at the Waste Management Facility located on Longleaf Road, Gainesville, Florida. An unknown number of suspects broke into the building by force. From inside, a set of keys were stolen for a vehicle assigned to the facility. The keys were used to steal a white Ford crew cab pickup.
