Burglarized LA businessman fed up with Democrats he voted for: 'I'm sick of it. ... Give me a reason to vote for you again.'

A badly burglarized Los Angeles businessman is fed up with crime in the area — and with Democrats he supported at the polls, KTTV-TV reported.

"I voted for [Mayor] Karen Bass. I voted for [President Joe] Biden. I voted for [Gov.] Gavin Newsom," Ryan Baggaley of the Delta Construction & Electric Co. on North San Fernando Road told the station. "I'm sick of it. It's like, at some point, you have to give me a reason to vote for you again."

What are the details?

Video shows a group of at least 10 thieves using a car to smash through a gate and then proceeding to steal from the business in the Glassell Park neighborhood early Wednesday morning, KTTV said.

"This whole strip has been broken into," Baggaley explained to the station while pointing out various victims nearby. "Our neighbors have been broken into four times. These guys got broken into two months ago. What are we supposed to do? We're a small construction company."

Baggaley told the station the thieves stole construction tools from his business — along with musical equipment and instruments stored on site, as he and his brother had played in a band together.

Now gone are six of his family's guitars, KTTV said.

Baggaley added to the station that the getaway car, a blue Kia Soul, was stolen from an impound yard owned by the Los Angeles Police Department. He noted to KTTV that police knew it was from the yard because of chalk marks on the window.

Now what?

The station said the business is now boarded up, and Baggaley is frustrated. Beside the stolen items, there are demolished gates and doors — all adding up to thousands of dollars in losses, KTTV noted.

He also told the station that he and other business owners just want to "do our jobs, make a living, help our employees make a good living, and move on. But it's really freaking difficult to survive."

KTTV added that police are investigating, but as of Wednesday night, there have been no arrests.
