Shop owner Harry Luther said thieves targeted the cigarette cabinet behind him in two raids over four weeks. “We had one girl [staffer] call the police straight away and they locked themselves in their rooms. “They’re pretty scared and they’ve told me they can’t work here anymore.” The first raid was on June 17, just after 9am when families were arriving at a neighbouring day care centre and people were making their way to work. “Even with all the cameras we have, with people around, they’ve just got no fear,” Luther said.
