"I seen two cars pull up. A female she got out of the car and told her boyfriend to break the window. Then they broke the window. I don’t know with what, took some bottles out,” Mel Conley, who witnessed the theft, said.
The looters got away with hundreds of dollars worth of merchandise. The crime surprised Larry Sharrod, who does security for the store.
"We didn't expect Racine because of how small Racine is and how quiet it’s been,” Sharrod said.
Nine cellphone and other stores in Racine were hit and looted.
The Thelma Orr Community Oriented Policing building was set on fire.
As Sharrod cleaned the mess in the store, he is bracing for the future.
"Now we have to prepare for an even worse situation because it's just going to happen," said Sharrod.
The owner of Liquor Depot says it's going to cost thousands of dollars to fix the damage.
