They say the suspect(s) broke the front gate to gain access to the property and then damaged the front door to get inside the building.
Police say the suspect(s) retrieved keys to two vehicles, a 2014 black GMC Terrain and a 1996 Chevrolet Impala with the licence plate CWNC015, and drove them off the lot.
The GMC Terrain was found a short distance away, but police say it had been destroyed by fire.
Police have not said whether the break-ins are related and could not provide any suspect information.
Anyone with information on either break-in or possible surveillance video is asked to contact Dufferin OPP at 1-888-310-1122 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 to remain anonymous.
