Retail Theft Nyheter

San Jose

Business owners in a Vietnamese American neighborhood in San Jose are voicing support for Proposition 36 in hopes it will relieve rampant retail theft at their businesses.

'This is our business right here, we are the face of Little Saigon,' said Vu Dinh, the owner of the Banh Mi Oven Vietnamese sandwich shop on Story Road.It's a family business that is trying to grow. But Dinh says the shop has been broken into repeatedly, including one stretch in 2022 when his surveillance cameras captured a string of eight burglaries.'They would go to the register and just grab it out and run away with it,' Dinh said.

'It is getting people the help they need but recognizing that if they are trapped by by a cycle of addiction to fentanyl and meth on our streets, we have to intervene.'The event was held at the Grand Century Mall, a Vietnamese shopping complex that's often the target of retail theft.'Each break-in affects not only our bottom lines, but it's also reduced the morale of my employees and the trust of our customers,' Dinh said to the gathering.
