San Mateo County sheriff’s deputies are investigating a window-smash burglary at Borrow Lenses in San Carlos that led to the theft of two laptops from the lobby early Sunday.

Deputies were called to the 1664 Industrial Road store, which provides professional photo and video equipment for rent, at 5:41 a.m.

“The business owner received an alert from the store’s interior surveillance cameras that showed two unknown suspects entered the closed business by kicking in the front glass door,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

The suspects, who were wearing hoodies and white medical masks, then tried to kick open a locked interior door, but failed and gave up. They fled the scene with two laptops.
