Milwaukee - On early Saturday, Samuel D. Santiago, Business Developer Officer, of the Milwaukee Branch of Ready Workforce USA received an unexpected call from a security protection agency that the staffing business had been broken into and vandalized by an unkown suspect or suspects. The incident occured around 3:30 a.m. at the 800 block of W. Historic Mitchell St., when vandals threw several large large rocks at the front right double pane glass window, including an inside corridor window.
One of the rocks became imbedded in the wall and another rock twice the size ended up inside the office area. Nothing was reported missing from the temperary job agency and there was no indication that anyone had entered the office, Santiago confirmed.
Santiago estimated the damage could cost and reach the thousands, but the agency has insurance to cover the damage done. He said, that the Milwaukee police were called shortly after the incident happened and was reported. Police didn't arrived at the scene until four hours later.
Police squads weren't available at the time because he was told police were busy at a fire scene in the area, according to Santiago.
At 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, Santiago could be seen at the agency cleaning up the broken glass and mess, to continue with the operating hours at the company. The staffing agency was expecting workers to come in for assigned jobs.
