East Boston smoke shop targeted by thieves three times in one month
An East Boston smoke shop has been hit by thieves three times in under a month.
Surveillance footage from the latest break-in Saturday shows the theft at Super Smoke Shop in East Boston. Despite plywood placed to deter thieves after two previous break-ins, two suspects rush into the store, stealing vape pens, cartridges and money from the cash register.
Police arrested two suspects – 18-year-old Ramon Batiz and a 15-year-old. But there are investigations into two other burglaries at this store – one last Sunday, and again last Tuesday.
“I fix the door, then 2 days ago, again, and third time, they break it like,” the owner told NBC10 Boston.
It’s not the only business having trouble. Earlier this month, a Franklin smoke shop was hit. And last month, it was two smoke shops in Back Bay.
The East Boston store owner says enough is enough.
“They make me mad because I have to spend money for the door, took my stuff,” he told NBC10 Boston.
Boston police say as part of the investigation they served a search warrant early Sunday, finding some of the stolen goods in a suspect’s apartments.
Those two teens are facing charges. There’s no word if all three of the break-ins are connected.
