Caught on camera, burglars steal thousands of dollars worth of jewelry from an antiques business in Auburn. FOX13

The owner says she's been targeted by thieves multiple times in the past few weeks and will again be heading to city council next week to ask leaders what they plan to do about rising crime.

"They popped through there, pulled it back, came right through here," said Willis, pointing to a shattered window that had since been boarded up with plywood. Security footage shows that the two thieves used that mallet to whack their way through a window, stuffing $10,000 worth of high-end jewelry into a white bag and escaping before police arrived. Willis estimates a loss of $20,000 to $30,000. That was the second time the business was targeted in just about a month's time. In March, a man broke in through the glass doors in order to steal an antique bench.

"There are absolutely no consequences," said Jennifer Carrington, Owner of Auburn Dance Academy. "We were dealing with a guy last night, who was clearly on drugs and very aggressive to an employee of mine," said Carrington. "He just literally broke out the window to the Polynesian shop down there, and then he goes around the corner and starts punching cars. This is not an environment we want here in Auburn," said Carrington.
