WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.- More than two dozen people are dealing with vandalized cars at an apartment complex in West Palm Beach.

West Palm Beach Police need your help to find out who smashed between 25 and 30 car windows at Portofino Place on Military Trail.

Detectives say the break-ins happened between 7 p.m. last night and 6:30 a.m. this morning.

They say $150 in cash was stolen from one vehicle.

Saturday morning, residents woke up to shattered glass on the ground and in their cars.

“It's hard for me to wake up on a Saturday morning and I can't go nowhere because someone broke into my car, so it's terrifying me,” said Ramon Williams.

Another victim, Ginel Mamby added, “Nothing was taken, thank God,” she said.  “But it was broken into and now I have to find money to replace it.”

Residents are upset. They say the front gate of the complex has been broken for about a month.

Police will be reviewing surveillance video.
