The California virus continues to infect communities across the state. This time it allowed a few young men wearing hoodies and facemasks to walk into an Apple store and start filling their backpacks full of Apple iPhones, laptops, and other merchandise.
Apple Store employees can be heard telling customers to “back up” and “let them go” clearing the customers to the edges of the open format store while the thieves run amuck snatching any Apple products they can see. At one point an Apple employee actually waks up to a customer and phsyical moves them out of the way to make it easier for one of the thieves to get to some products.
