Session Supply, a local vape shop that opened less than four months ago, is the latest victim of a smash-and-grab burglary.

According to the owner, Dutch Knudson, a group of seven individuals pulled up to his business, at 1614 S Academy Blvd, at 4:30 a.m. Wednesday. The group can be seen on surveillance video using a stolen Kia to crash into the storefront, allowing them to gain entrance and steal an assortment of items.

Items stolen include vapes, nicotine juices, kratom powders, glass and pipes. Knudson said the worth of the items has been estimated at $4,000.

One member of the group used a hammer to break cases throughout the story while their partners continuing stealing. After stealing a significant amount of merchandise, the group takes off in several getaway cars.

According to Knudson, the alarm altered the Colorado Springs Police Department who did not initially respond to the scene. It wasn’t until Knudson woke up at 6:30 a.m. and called the police on the way to his store that officers arrived.

At this point, with the extensive damage, Knudson does not believe he will get this location back up and running.

“What we probably are going to do is just close this location anyways, and I’m going to turn it into something else at this spot, something that’s less of a target for children to hit,” Knudson said.

It is unclear at this time if the individuals involved with the break-in are juveniles.

According to statistics provided to the Gazette by the Colorado Springs Police Department, there have been 18 such smash-and-grab incidents in the city in January-June of this year, including four last month.
