What's the hottest electronic gift of the season? Stolen Apple products!
Verging on the point of trend, more Apple products were boosted, but this time, the bandits were overseas. A few hours before midnight Monday night, the Apple Store near the building that hosts the Paris Opera was broken into by a group of masked men. After overpowering a janitor who was about to leave (what sounds less difficult to force your way past then a French janitor?), they skipped over the display products, cash registers, and safes. their target was $1.3 million in boxed inventory.
The goods were loaded onto a truck conveniently waiting nearby.
Although there was an increased police presence in the city for New Year's celebrations, the thieves were able to get away relatively easy due to the police focus on partiers. It's a brilliant idea, with more gadgets and less heroin than the poorly executed plan from Killing Zoe (hence the lede photo)
