In one burglary, they took off with an entire safe.
Both Parsnip and Phillips are okay, but missing a few items.'They were clearly looking for … they were going through my bathrooms, they went through my office. They were looking for items to take,' Phillips said. 'I do have electronics, iPads, things like that.
