A witness heard glass breaking near a restaurant and saw two individuals wearing hoodies outside of it.

Police arrived to find the south-facing window smashed and a large concrete block on the floor inside the window. Police did not believe anyone had entered the business because the glass on the table inside had not been moved or disturbed and there was no trail of glass coming or going from the broken window.

Despite their belief that no one had entered the building through the window, after a delivery man let police officers into the restaurant, they discovered that four of the five surveillance cameras had been painted over with black spray paint and the door to a small safe under the cash register had been removed.

The manager arrived to tally up the money that should have been in the safe.
