Good Morning, Mr. Mayer. I am Officer Caulfield. How did it happen?
They took all the computers and other machines. Everything’s worth thousands of dollars. I am ruined!
Please be patient, Mr. Mayer. We’ll find them.
I hope so, Officer. This is really getting bad. Wasn’t there a robbery in Miller’s Hall last month?
