The launch of the iPhone XS it was not auspicious for the Apple company, and that's because an Apple Store was robbed twice during the weekend of the launch of the new phones. We are talking about the Apple Store in Palo Alto, the exact same one where Tim Cook is present at every launch of a new iPhone model, including this year.
The damage to those from Apple amounts to 107.000 dollars, a huge amount because the new iPhone models were also stolen, which those from Apple will block anyway. In the first robbery, the thieves managed to escape with Apple products worth 57.000 dollars, while in the second they managed to steal products worth another 50.000 dollars.
Apple Store ROBBED 2 Times in 12 Hours During the iPhone XS LAUNCH
No less than 8 thieves entered the Apple store in Palo Alto to carry out the 2 robberies, and the security agents failed to prevent them in any of the situations. The main door of the store was broken by thieves to enter the store, but what is more interesting is that we are talking about the same store that the president of Apple occasionally visits.
"Investigators determined the burglar or burglars entered the store by shattering the door with either river rocks or coconut-sized boulders, Madrigal said. An estimated $50,000 worth of iPhones and iPads, among other items, were stolen."
Those at Apple have recently faced many robberies of this kind, but so far they have not managed to stop them, but serious measures must be taken. The increase in the number of robberies in Apple Stores can be directly attributed to the popularity of Apple products, and the ease with which they can be sold on the black market by thieves.
