A Miami Beach restaurant owner is dealing with the aftermath of an overnight break-in after a man smashed through her restaurant’s door and stole a cash register containing $600, according to the owner.Liliana Arguinzonesa, owner of 7tyone Restaurant on Normandy Drive, said she was nervous to enter the business when she discovered the damage.“I’m nervous to enter because I don’t know if the person is still inside,” Arguinzonesa said.Surveillance video captured the burglary just before 1 a.m. The video shows a man wearing a hat, a towel covering his face and a backpack as he breaks through the restaurant’s door.He then walks behind the counter, takes the cash register and leaves.In addition to the stolen cash, Arguinzonesa now has to repair the damaged door.“Today it’s me, but another day it can be another person, my neighbor, another business,” she said.Arguinzonesa has filed a police report, and Miami Beach police confirmed they are investigating. No suspect information was immediately available.The owner said the break-in has affected more than just her business.“You just not take the money, you broke my dreams, you broke my peace,” she said.Arguinzonesa hopes someone will help identify the person responsible.

He did not win the race.The Broward State Attorney’s Office told Local 10 that a judge issued an order Thursday outlining Manley’s bond conditions. They include standard pretrial release, no possession of weapons or ammunition, no contact with the victims and a prohibition on posting to social media.The office also confirmed it will not handle Manley’s case because of a conflict of interest.In a statement to Local 10, the office said it requested that the governor’s office assign the case to another state attorney’s office because the listed victims have participated in several charitable drives organized by the Broward State Attorney’s Office over the years.Manley’s total bond is $40,000.
