SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- Danville city officials say they do not believe ballots were stolen or tampered with after a collection box was found unsecured after it was serviced.

The box is located at the Park and Ride lot near Sycamore Valley Road and Camino Ramon.

It had been worked on earlier on Sunday, but was not properly closed and locked.
