They're small business owners who have lost nearly $40,000 after several thieves forced their way into their shop.
White said she is frustrated after a store her son and godson worked so hard for was broken into in the early hours of Tuesday."In awe. It was bad, it was horrible," Lamarkus Simpson, CEO of ShewzHouston, said. "Someone who has probably come to the store and scoped the place out definitely got a good look around," Simpson said.

That’s some sneaky thieves.
Houston finest on the case! Nefarious actors will rue the day! Lol.
So peaceful
So, was there no alarm system at all going off.. silent nor loud? How in the world can you steal 150 pairs of shoes, because a variety of single shoes would not help in sells, and a cop or anyone not arrive from the alarm?
Hopefully insurance will help them out, versus them shutting down.
