They finally made entry by a side door and discovered many phones missing and a surveillance system pulled down.

A money safe and cellphone safe were all destroyed and items taken. The entrances were also vandalized and security system ripped out.

Payne reports they were able to pull video showing two black males entering the store before the surveillance system was pulled down. Dillard told police she received a surveillance system power failure around 2:30am.
