While working an extra job at Hamilton Place Mall, an officer reviewed security camera footage of a prior incident of vandalism to a car. The officer saw the woman park her car and entered the mall. She returned to her vehicle approximately 15 minutes later. During that interval, no one came near her vehicle. There is a moment where her passenger side window appears to go from solid to broken in a single frame of the footage. No one was around the vehicle and the window only appears to "spider web crack" entirely, but does not fall in. It appears that this break was caused due to heat and not any act of vandalism.
