Two men stole nearly $700 from a cash register at Walmart on South Rutherford Boulevard in Murfreesboro. If you are like most people, you are probably scratching your head trying to figure out how this happened.

The theft was reported on Monday night shortly after 10:00. Two unknown men entered the store and headed to the tire and service center that was closed for the evening. The men can be seen on surveillance video footage prying open the cash register. A hammer was used to break into the machine. At this point police have not released that footage.
