It was there that he then physically broke into a locked door to an office. The thief takes items and leaves through the rear door.
One of the items taken was a set of car keys that belonged to an employee. On camera footage that was just released today, January 13, 2021, the thief is observed finding the car the keys match up to, getting in and driving away.. Inside the car were several legally owned firearms, and other ballistic items that were legally owned. The vehicle was recovered butI the firearms were not.
