   MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A new business in the Oakhaven area is picking up the   
   pieces after an overnight smash-and-grab.   
      
   The grand opening sign still sits in the window outside the Getwell Liquor and   
   Wine store on Getwell Road. But that did not stop criminals from making the   
   business one of the latest targets just after midnight.   
      
   Isaac Jimerson says he works near the liquor store and was their first   
   customer.   
      
   “They were able to give us a nice little deal,” Jimerson said. “They   
   good people.”   
      
   Employees say the business opened on August 9 and less than a week later they   
   have to replace glass outside and inside the store.   
      
   They say they expected this to happen, but not this soon.   
      
   “It shows somebody can’t just enjoy the simple things for just a short   
   amount of time. I mean. It shows so much corruption. I mean no one cares   
   anymore,” Jimerson said.   
      
   Memphis police say five suspects wearing face masks smashed their car through   
   the front windows and two of the suspects had sledgehammers. The suspects were   
   in two vehicles; a gray sedan, and a white SUV.   
      
   According to employees, the thieves were able to grab liquor and five days   
   worth of cash from the cash register and leave behind a lot of damage.   
      
   “It just breaks your heart to see this,” Jimerson said.   
      
   This is an ongoing investigation. One thing that may be able to help Memphis   
   Police is that the business had plenty of cameras everywhere.   
      
   Despite the incident, Getwell Liquor and Wine is still open for business.
