When a San Fernando business owner discovered his restaurant had been robbed twice this week, he found another surprise in the robbed restaurant: an apology note from the thief.
The Teriyaki Madness on Truman Street was robbed Tuesday and Thursday, with security cameras recording the robber breaking through a broken window and heading straight for the cash register, according to KTLA-TV.
The robber left a note that read: “I'm sorry. I need money to buy drugs, I won't be back.”
In the same shopping center, an adjacent business, the San Fernando Coffee Co., was also robbed this week, according to a note the owner posted on social media.
A cash register was stolen, preventing employees from completing online orders until the equipment was replaced.
“We hope there will be more patrols in the area,” the company wrote in an Instagram post on Thursday. “Thank God we were able to resolve everything and we are back to normal.”
The San Fernando Police Department and Teriyaki Madness did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
