SALT LAKE CITY — A beloved empanada shop in Sugar House is picking up the pieces after a weekend burglary left it with a shattered front door and hundreds of dollars stolen.

Early Sunday, co-owner Adam Farr arrived at Empanada.Co to find glass scattered across the entryway and the cash drawer missing.

"When you walk up to your building, almost a year into it, the last thing you expect to see is glass all over the place," Farr said.

Damage inside the shop revealed the thieves had taken about $300 and damaged the point-of-sale system.

"I immediately could see the cash drawer was gone, the POS system was thrown and the computer was knocked down," Farr added.

Despite the setback, the Farr family reopened the very next day, determined not to let the incident slow them down.
