The suspects then broke into the office and workshop of the business.
They then took keys of one of the security guard’s car and tried to start it. They pushed it outside the premises to push start it, but it would not start and they eventually left it behind.
The security guards are not sure what was taken from the business, but one of the guards reported hearing the sound of another vehicle leaving the premises.
