Heater Theft Is Plaguing Restaurants That Rely on Outdoor Dining | Eater
"A Saginaw restaurant had three high-power heaters — two nearly new — stolen on February 1, costing roughly $1,100; owner Tony Krasinski said losing heaters would have meant losing customers and jeopardizing staff work, so he replaced two within a day by driving 30 minutes to buy them. The theft pushed the business to adopt new security measures and nightly storage routines to prevent repeat losses while stressing the necessity of outdoor heat to maintain revenue and staffing." - Jenny G.
