The LAPD has released footage showing two suspects wanted for a series of restaurant and coffee shop burglaries in the West LA-area.
According to the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), over the last several weeks, the West Los Angeles Division has identified a series of commercial burglaries occurring throughout the area.
“The suspects target restaurants and coffee shops in the early morning hours while the businesses are closed.
