Whitney Cumbo, the owner of a beauty supply store in Bridgeport, is speaking out after her business was once again the subject of vandalism. This time, the store’s front window was shattered by an unknown person on June 18th. Cumbo has had to pick up the pieces outside of her business multiple times due to vandalism incidents, with the most recent one being especially damaging.
Cumbo and her sister started their small business five years ago in Bridgeport, choosing the location because it felt close to home and where they grew up. However, she now feels like she is being pushed out due to her race. As an African American woman, Cumbo shared her struggles with trying to succeed while feeling like she keeps getting set back for no reason.
Despite the setbacks, Cumbo feels defeated but remains hopeful that justice will be served. Employee Donte Miles expressed disappointment over the vandalism and emphasized that their business operates with good intentions and creates a positive atmosphere for the community. Police have not yet taken anyone into custody as the investigation continues.
