SAN DIEGO — The holiday season has soured a bit for an Ocean Beach business that has been burglarized twice in the past few weeks.
Surveillance cameras caught a thief as he busted his way into The Template, a coffee shop and community space, last Tuesday morning.
“They hopped our eight-foot gate and kicked open the back door and kicked open the office door and stole our cash register and our change box,” co-owner Shine Ray said.
Owners put in newly-reinforced doors and an upgraded security system, after they were burglarized just a few weeks earlier.
Owners believe it’s the same guy in both incidents — each one costing the business thousands of dollars.
“It’s absolutely intense. The overhead for us is so extreme here by the beach and to have something like this happen, it just took us to the floor,” Ray said.
