Small businesses in Weld, Boulder counties hit by string of break-ins

WELD COUNTY, Colo. (KDVR) — A string of business burglaries in Boulder and Weld counties has left several business owners reeling and police on the lookout.

Many of the break-ins happened the same way.

The suspect appears to use the same way of operating, breaking through the front glass window or door of businesses. They either try or take off with the cash register.

“So the cops had contacted my mom who also owns this business with me. We just rushed over here — it was about 8 o’clock in the morning,” said Alycia Abraham, owner of Our Pet Spot.

“I think they came over at like three in the morning,” said Abraham. “That’s what police was saying. So, the door was left smashed and open until we made it over here.”

The burglar got away with the cash drawer, leaving behind way more destruction than it was worth.
