ReStyle Designers shared video showing the moments when burglars ransacked the store at about 5 a.m. on Sunday at 121 S. Cook Street.

Barrington police confirmed that six suspects took high end designer purses, shoes and jewelry.

The owners say years of hard work were wiped out in just seconds.

The brazen robbery is causing concern among other area business owners.

"It's a shame. As a business owners it is your worst nightmare," Owner of Long and Company Jewelers Brian Long said.

So-called smash and grab crimes have been more common recently in numerous Chicago area businesses with thieves often stealing cash registers and merchandise.

Local business owners say this is the first time in recent memory that it has happened in this area of the northwest suburbs.

"I have the utmost confidence in our police force. I know many of them well. They are very good at what they do. And if I were those guys, I'd be nervous right now," Long said.

Barrington Police are working to identify at least six people. A witness told police they saw two vehicles speeding away from the scene.

The shop owners are promising to rebuild.
