Horsham pizzeria targeted in crime spree
Horsham's Bonnie and Clydes Pizzeria fell victim to a recent crime spree after the shop encountered property damage over the weekend.
Between 12.30am to 1am on July 5, the shop's front glass door and street partition was smashed, leaving a big clean up for owners Emily and Dan Lukazsewski.
"It's not the first time and it won't be the last," Mr Lukazsewski said.
"It's just one of those things. It sucks, you clean-up and get over it."
Unfortunately, three Horsham Rural City Council CCTV cameras surrounding the business were not working.
"If they were working, we would've got an image of them," Mr Lukazsewski said.
"I put a call out to other businesses to see if they caught anything."
Horsham Police senior sergeant Steve Grey said it is an ongoing investigation with officers on the hunt for CCTV footage.
"Two more windows have been found broken in the CBD," he said.
Although Bonnie and Clydes Pizzeria opened the following night for trading, Mr Lukazsewski said the fix is "make safe" at the moment.
"It's a custom piece of glass that will take some time to do," he said.
He expressed his thanks to the Horsham community for their response.
"I think with the recent crime spree we've seen, the community is fed up with it and just want to see the end of it," Mr Lukazsewski said.
