Tens of thousands of dollars worth of designer wedding gowns were stolen from a Tanglewood boutique.
, the burglar made a beeline for those dresses and luxury silk pajamas on display, skipping over jewelry and handbags inside.
Peck says he's tightened security since the last incident, adding cameras all over, and only had a week’s time frame where one of the store's windows were vulnerable. "We had done security film on all of our windows, and we had cameras installed. Unfortunately, we had a door switched out for a window and the security film had not been applied to that, and they went exactly for that. They didn’t even test the other windows. So, they knew exactly where to break in," Peck said.
"It's unfortunate to have to go through this," he continued. "We thought we had done everything that we could to prepare ourselves and so that if they did try to break in, they wouldn’t be able to get in. They found the one weakness that we had." With no updates since the last break-in and just over a week until Christmas to fulfill an influx of orders, Peck feels like he’s running out of options to keep his business safe.
"It does make you think like ‘oh, why are you here? And what are your intentions?’" Peck explained. "I hate to live that way but apparently, we may have to become a little bit more wary."
