A man and woman burglary team got away with thousands of dollars of merchandise from a Seattle business, and local shop owners believe their crime spree extends throughout the city.

Around 4:30 a.m., surveillance cameras captured video of two crooks breaking into Sfingiday, a boutique in the Fremont neighborhood of Seattle. The owner, Christine Olson, says it’s heartbreaking to watch thieves rifle through your business."It’s very unpleasant. It feels very violating," she said. "They were just in so fast. Their whole M-O is they climb in, two minutes, and roll out," Olson added.

FOX 13 Seattle spoke with Seattle Police who told us they are investigating the break-in at Sfingiday and are looking into the possibility of the suspects being connected to other crimes.The mayor’s office also sent us a statement regarding the concerns of small business owners:Seattle’s small business owners deserve to be heard and have their concerns addressed.
