A $5,000 plasma television set was stolen from a Bismarck elementary school during a burglary.

Bismarck Police Sgt. Dwight Offerman said the television was stolen from Moses Elementary, 1312 Columbia Drive, between 2:30 and 3:10 a.m. Saturday.

The burglars may have gained access to the school through the roof, Offerman said.

He said video surveillance of the theft is available, and the incident is under investigation.

"All the schools have pretty good video surveillance in the halls and other areas," Offerman said.
