Albany -- Millennium Mall and Flea Market business owners found their stores ransacked Wednesday morning.

Thieves stole close to 50-thousand dollars worth of merchandise from the mall owner's electronics store and 8 other vendors.

This is the sixth time in two years the Mall on Radium Springs Road has been broken into. The business owners want Albany Police to do more to stop the break-ins.

Mall owner Peter Kong said "I wish the Albany Police, they put more attention on it. That's what we wish." You hope they can catch somebody. "I hope so. I hope so. Not just this time, but put more attention into watching this neighborhood." 

 The Millennium Mall is closed Monday and Tuesday. Kong thinks it took four or five people several hours and at least one large truck to get all the merchandise and haul it away.
