Little Silver police are investigating a smash-and-grab at a business Monday morning.

Detective Sergeant Daniel Shaffery told redbankgreen that a New Jersey Transit commuter reported seeing the front door window at Luigi’s Pizza, on Oceanport Avenue, broken.

Shaffery said that sometime overnight, someone threw a rock through the window, broke in and stole an undetermined amount of cash from the store’s register.

Police are investigating, and further details were not available.

This is the second run of bad luck for Luigi’s, whose owner was the target of a scam in which an Asbury Park man was alleged to have impersonated the owner.

The suspect, James Harrington, was arrested in December for bilking customers out of money over the course of a year. Police said Harrington would tell people his name was Jim Russo, that he owned Luigi’s and that he had locked himself out of his car and needed money to get a train or cab.

Shaffery said a similar scam is afoot in Little Silver. Somebody, he said, is using the same technique as Harrington is alleged to have used. This time, though, the impersonator is saying that he owns Gianni’s Pizzeria, on Prospect Avenue.

“You can’t make this stuff up,” Shaffery said.
