Eight stores in the Gateway Mall have been hit by thieves over the past two days.
Store owners arrived at the mall yesterday to find their locks broken off or damaged and their cash registers emptied of all cash. According to the store owners’ accounts, the thieves took over $1 000 in cash and $765 in clothing.

Shirley Teskadabee-Lovell, owner of Shirley’s Variety, said $60 had been taken from her cash register and several drinks taken from the refrigerator.
