SOLANA BEACH, Calif. (FOX 5/KUSI) — Staff at a Solana Beach shop are trying to get back to normal after thieves broke in and made off with some pricey specialized items. “All the mannequins were thrown on the ground," explained Marisol Cortes, manager at Strut Hair Solutions located on Lomas Santa Fe Dr. "It was just a shock to us to see our store vandalized like that type of way." Security camera footage shows two masked thieves making their way inside around 3:30 a.m. on Monday and then filling up trash bags with wigs and hair extensions. Helena Gibson, who has owned the shop for 13 years, said it's a $35,000 hit.  "One of the officers counted that they got 36 wigs and about 28 hair toppers and a couple extensions," according to Gibson. The hair pieces are made for women undergoing chemotherapy or living with alopecia, or COVID-related hair loss.  San Diego angler breaks California record with catch of 666-pound swordfish "The officers were saying this is happening more and more because they’re not being able to break into Target, Nordstrom and all that because they’re having armed guards," Gibson said. She also said the alarm inside her shop never went off, and she is currently trying to resolve the issue with her security system provider. "They’re saying they’re not liable," Gibson said. She wanted to share the lesson she learned so that other business owners can avoid similar situations. "Check your alarm contracts and make sure that you have some kind of coverage if there's an outage and it doesn’t work," Gibson added. The business owner is also considering installing security bars at the front of the building for added protection. Gibson said a late-model White Chevy Silverado 1500 pickup truck was spotted leaving the scene. Anyone with information on the incident is urged to call the San Diego Police Department at 619-531-2000.
