Boston Store’s First Break-Ins In 23 Years Coincide With Arrival Of 'Occupy'

By Bill Shields, WBZ-TV

BOSTON (CBS) – Linda Capillo doesn’t know why, after 23 years, her small convenience store on Congress Street is being targeted by thieves.

“After they came through the door, I put bars on it,” said Capillo. “Then, they start coming through the window.”

In 23 years, she had never had a break-in at Congress Card & Tobacco on 230 Congress Street. But in the past month, there have been four. Each time, the thieves took nothing but cigarettes, scratch tickets and/or cash.
