3 Stores Broken Into At Rock Creek Shopping Center​: Report

SILVER SPRING, MD — Three neighboring businesses at Rock Creek Shopping Center in Silver Spring were broken into on Tuesday morning, according to WTOP. The three businesses that were hit included Parkway Deli, Red Maple Asian Bistro, and Fiona Nail Lounge.

The suspects smashed the glass front doors of each store to gain entry, the news outlet reported.

"Our door was busted and so were a couple of more doors in the shopping center," Rigoberto Cruz, manager at Parkway Deli, told WTOP.

Cruz said the suspects left the deli empty-handed. However, Red Maple Asian Bistro and Fiona Nail Lounge weren't so lucky. According to WTOP, more than $2,200 was stolen from the bistro and $200 was stolen from the nail salon.

"This is terrifying. I spoke to another mom, who just walked by with two kids, and she said this terrified her, as well," said Thu Nguyen, owner of Fiona Nail Lounge.

Nguyen went on to say that this area is safe and doesn't usually deal with crime.

"This area is very safe, a lot of people here are, like, very calm … and have a healthy lifestyle," Nguyen told the news outlet.
