An officer responded to a burglar alarm at Performing Arts, 5618 Old Mission Road. The back storm door had been pried open and the door kicked. After searching the business's interior, the officer contacted the responsible person. When he arrived, he showed the officer security footage of the incident. The video showed two men approach the rear of the building at 3:52 a.m. and begin to pry the storm door. Once the storm door was open, one man kicked open the back door, which triggered the alarm. When the alarm went off, they both took off running, without entering the business, toward a white SUV parked behind Aaron's. The SUV then left the area. The officer found two security cameras behind Aaron's that may have caught the SUV on the footage. The man said his wife owned the building and it would cost around $1,000 to repair the damage to the door.
