Seattle dental office broken into 3 times in one night, owner says

A Seattle dental office was broken into three separate times in a span of a few hours, the owner said.

The next-door apartment was also allegedly broken into by the same suspects during the same night.

KIRO 7 News spoke with Stephanie Mendoza, operations manager of South Lake Union Dentist Office, who said the small business lost around $3,000 worth of items in three separate break-ins Sunday, just before 10 p.m.

The break-ins were captured on surveillance video.

Mendoza said at least four people stole a safe, three laptops, three Sonicare toothbrushes and Mendoza’s iPad.

After logging into her iCloud account, she said she was able to track her electronic device back to Lynnwood.

“I still see where it’s at. It’s been at the same location for the past couple of days,” she said. “That area is pretty sketchy where it’s at and I don’t want to put myself in danger.”

Mendoza said a police report has been filed.

KIRO 7 News is still waiting to hear back from Seattle police to get more details, including on the alleged suspects.
