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.
