Santa Monica police searched for two suspected robbers who broke a glass door at a coffee shop early on Tuesday.
The robbery happened around 4:30am at Amai Coffee on Pico Boulevard near 17th Avenue as two men smashed the front door.
The suspects had not stolen anything, but forced entry would spend $1,000 in damages on the business, police said.
Two men were caught up in the video and escaped the scene in a white or silver sedan.
