Incident Details

On the morning of Saturday, January 31st at approximately ~4:53am, three masked individuals broke into our building through a 15” x 19” front-facing window, using a paint bucket as a step to gain entry. Once inside, they smashed a couple interior windows to access our Quality Control room where they stole a few lower-value Canon cameras. They attempted to forcibly enter our main gear room, but couldn't get in. Our alarm and camera system alerted immediately and police were dispatched, arriving just after the suspects exited through the front door at approximately 4:58am. Total time inside the building was about four minutes. They were masked & wearing gloves & hoodies. It seemed very smash & grab. They didn't seem to know what they were doing or looking for. They couldn't figure out how to open a pelican case (which was empty anyways). They did steal our Nintendo Switch.
