Horn Photo, Fresno, Calif., has been targeted by a pair of thieves posing as customers, according to media reports. The thieves are repeat offenders, according to ABC 30, with three separate thefts over the course of several months. In the latest pilfering, the couple, who acted as if they were shopping for camera bags, took a Panasonic G85 camera.

“They’re professionals, they know what they’re doing and they took advantage of us,” Stan Grosz, owner, Horn Photo, told the ABC reporter, adding he believes this is the third time the couple has targeted their shop after also being hit in February and in July.

‘We’ll get through it, we got a lot worse things in the world. We love our customers and we love Fresno,” Grosz says. The store has since improved its security measures.
