The robbers left thousands of dollars damaged”.

David Castelan, owner of El Authentico, said, “We are unable to re-open our business as we are not able to get techs here for the fixing of our system, they say it is Friday”. He added, “If we would not open soon then it will be a huge loss of dollars for us”. Surveillance camera showed that two robbers with black hoodies and mask on face broke in the Gigante Bakery. One of them came out with a drawer from the cash register.

The owners are hopeful to get back to the business soon but if they do not get back soon then they will lose a lot of money.
