Since the pandemic, thievery in retail stores has been at an all-time high. Locally, QFC in Bella Bottega has been highly targeted. The store was recently remodeled to include a large liquor store. According to an employee, thieves work as a team, where one loads up the grocery cart and another loads the car. They may primarily be after the liquor. Employees and customers are frightened so don't run down the criminals. The "Live View" (LTV) device deters 40-70% of the thieves and keeps business running smoothly. It's extensive network of cameras sends tape back to the police.
