A Portland business owner says she's disappointed that the Oregon city’s Property Crimes Unit has been disbanded, although the city says it's in no way abandoning the investigation of such malfeasance.

The unit investigated burglaries, stolen cars, organized retail crime, and identity theft. Newell previously spoke with Fox News Digital about her windows being smashed after displaying religious-themed decorations in the front window last December. She said that when she saw her store windows smashed, it made her "angry," adding this is a common occurrence in the city. "I can understand that the police are so shortened," Newell said.
