ALBANY, GA. -- A small business is beefing up its security after being targeted by a burglar.

The manager of Celebrity Whips Car Audio and Accessories says Saturday morning he entered the facility and noticed something missing.

He says an intruder had removed the back wall inside the store by entering through an air conditioner opening.

The suspect didn't take anything but the manager says the damage he caused was enough.

“Trying to pay taxes and trying to be something positive in this community and to have it done like that, it's not right. And it's going to force people to protect what they own,” said Celebrity Whips Car Audio and Accessories Manager Conrad Middleton.

Albany police are still looking into this case.
