Police in Escondido are looking for a cafe customer who they say swiped a barista’s keys and stole her car, then possibly returned the car to the tea shop the next day.
"I am still in so much shock. I can’t fathom that that would happen to me," Perez told NBC 7 Tuesday afternoon. “It kind of makes me feel stupid. I was in the kitchen washing dishes."
Perez realized her car was missing when she went to get her lunch out of it, which was about 10 minutes after the woman left the store. Not only was the car missing, but a number of personal items inside were gone too, including a rosary which is very important to her, her school transcripts and a pin that had a picture of her late grandfather in it.
The video and Katya’s sad story made the rounds on Escondido’s neighborhood social media sites, and Sharetea posted photos of the theft suspect on its own social media channels. Friends and even complete strangers were willing to help Perez find her car and the woman who they think took it. "I'm more sad [than excited] because all of my stuff is gone," Perez said."They even took the picture of my grandpa that was in there ... My seats are ruined, there's gasoline spilled all over the car, all my clothes are gone, all my books are gone."
