T.J. Maxx also filed a report and said it is investigating if any merchandise was stolen in addition to its broken windows.
More photos and video related the crimes will be released today, police spokesman Sam Clemens said.
“We’re still getting video, putting that together. We’ve got a lot of video from those businesses, the different traffic cameras,” Clemens said, adding a lot of tips are coming in to Crime Stoppers.
“We’re making progress. We’re getting so much video it’s going to take time to get through all that,” he said.
Police had extra officers out Monday night in case of any additional flare-ups, he added. One small protest happened downtown without incident.
