On Tuesday at 10:46 p.m., you see a silver 2002 or 2003 Honda Accord pull in to the strip center at 11210 Bellaire.
There's other box trucks in the parking lot, but the silver Accord makes a beeline for the AZ Cargo truck.
"The point at me. They come directly for my box truck," the owner said.
One suspect gets out of the car a couple of minutes later.
"He knows exactly what time the security guard comes into work," the owner said. "The security guard comes in after 11."
At 10:49 p.m., the thief makes entry into the truck.
By 11:02 p.m., he has the box truck started and you see him drive off.
The box truck was filled with $60,000 to $70,000 worth of home goods people here were sending to loved ones in Vietnam.
It was almost a six-figure loss for the owner.
"It's hurt me a lot. I can not sleep," he said.
Anyone with information should contact HPD or Crime Stoppers.
