It seems that the thieves got greedy and started exploring other areas of the business park. One spot was right in front of a rear camera that captured a man’s face at 2:23 a.m. Sunday.
“They were here from 1:45 to 4:45-5 in the morning,” Gray said.
Another camera captured what Gray said must have been the getaway car.

This week, more cameras were installed around the Mason Business Park in case the thieves decide to return.
