“We seen the door smashed... everything was ransacked, vandalized,” Nina said.
A police report obtained by News Center 7 confirms that the business was ransacked with the front door smashed and the back door left open.
No money was taken and there are no charges at this time due to a lack of suspect information.
“We are thankful that we have a community here that supports us. So with God, the community, and just our resilience between me and my husband, we won’t be bullied by anybody,” Nina said.
Red Lava Vape next door was also broken into.
“We checked the back of it. I seen four guys. One was trying to cut through the back door. The other guy was taking the electricity power off, so the cameras and the alarm system goes completely off,” Karam Atwa, owner of Red Lava Vape said.
All Seasons Catering customer Holly Roberson said she was sad to hear about the break-ins.
“I can’t sit by and watch somebody continue to do this to them,” she said.
