WEST MELBOURNE, Fla. -- Brazen burglars in Brevard County are accused of throwing bricks at West Melbourne business windows early Thursday morning.

The incident happened at the Hammock Landing shopping center.

Police say several glass store fronts were smashed when the alleged burglars threw bricks at them to try to get inside.

They were only able to make it inside one business and stole an undetermined amount of cash.

Business owners are fed up, now having to deal with thousands of dollars in damage.

“Stop. There is no reason to do this. Just stop. Go home, get a job, appreciate what we work for and stop destroying other peoples' things,” said Kathy Ferrando, a business owner in the shopping center.

A few miles south around the same time, Palm Bay Police say suspects smashed three store windows with bricks but reportedly weren't able to get inside.
