A group of five thieves broke into a bakery. The violence betrayed them even more, as they broke a glass door. They intimidated the local workers and after some rumbling and fumbling, they finally came out with sweets instead of money.

“I’m dying,” said a young employee, surprised by the presence of the five attackers.

He ran for his life and tried to hide in the bathroom.

“I went to the oven to check the bread. At that moment they came in and started shouting. The only response I had was to run to the bathroom. I thought, ‘I’m going to die.’ I thought they were going to kill me,” the worker told the KTLA network, La Opinión reported.

The robbery took place in Los Angeles, United States. At 2:50 a.m., the five subjects arrived to rob the El Valle Oaxaqueño bakery, located in the 1600 block of Vermont Avenue, Pico Union.

Security cameras recorded their movements. The video shows the moment a black Cadillac truck arrives with covered license plates.

After parking, five men get out of the car. Cover their faces. The driver waited for his accomplices to commit the attack, Telemundo 52 reported on January 16, 2024.

Once inside the bakery, they saw the young man who started running and chased him into the washroom, said bakery owner Arturo Aguilar.

The thieves realized that another worker was in the production area and pushed him outside to take him to where they subdued his colleague. There were three employees working at the time.

“They took the time to search the entire bakery” and did not release any apparent tools, scaring the employees. The cameras continued to record them.

They asked about the safe at the bakery.

“They didn’t hit the workers, they pointedly asked them where the office was, where the safe was,” Aguilar told Telemundo 52.

Journalist Balbino Avilés reported that the subjects smashed a bathroom door, believing it to be the office where they kept the money.

“They came for the money, they didn’t find anything because we don’t keep money here,” the owner of El Valle Oaxaqueño bakery said bluntly.

Seeing that they were practically lost, they left with “candies and little things they saw along the way,” Arturo Aguilar said.

When they left through the back door, they got back into the black truck after 9 intense minutes. One, as recorded in the video, removes what covered the plate.

Aguilar laments that there are no laws to stop crime. According to La Opinión, he estimates that fixing what they broke will be expensive, but he is grateful that his three workers are safe. (JO)
