99 cent burglars left with chump change; with video

Two smash-and-grab burglars used a cement parking stone to break the glass front door of a Lauderdale Lakes dollar store Tuesday morning and walked out with the cash register. Luckily, there was only about $20 in  change  in the cash drawer and surveillance video captured the entire escapade. [bubblecast id=284767]

Shortly after 6:30 a.m., before 99-Cent Plus in Oakland Lakes Plaza had opened for the day, a white Toyota backed into a parking space in front of the store. Two men got out of the car, and one threw a small, triangle-shaped, cement parking stone through the front door. One of the burglars stayed outside, and the other went in and lifted the register.

One of the burglars wore a white shirt, dark gym shorts, dark sneakers and cap and had a full beard. The other wore a white, long-sleeved shirt, white sneakers, dark pants and dark cap.

Anyone who recognizes the burglars can contact Det. William Upegui, Jr. at 954-497-1646 or anonymously report the information to Crime Stoppers of Broward County at (954) 493-TIPS or online at www.browardcrimestoppers.org.
