An Apple Store at the Alderwood Mall was robbed last weekend, with thieves infiltrating the location through a nearby coffee shop. According to Seattle's King 5 News, thieves broke into Seattle Coffee Gear, went into the bathroom, and cut a hole in the wall to get to the ?Apple Store? backroom.

The burglars were able to bypass the ?Apple Store?'s security system by using the adjacent coffee shop, stealing a total of 436 iPhones that were worth around $500,000.
According to Seattle Coffee Gear manager Eric Marks, the coffee shop is not noticeably adjacent to the ?Apple Store? because of the way that the store is laid out. "I would have never suspected we were adjacent to the ?Apple Store?, how it wraps around I mean," Marks told King 5 News. "So, someone really had to think it out and have access to the mall layout."

I guess they can use them as spare parts? Apple will never let those phones be activated.

Thieves will get their money, it’s the people getting a “good deal” on Facebook Marketplace and OfferUp that will get screwed

At least the one in North Monroe had their phones in safe. Not much was stolen but lots of damage.

Nope, the one of 165 south in the strip mall across from nursing home.

I’m 100% positive there is a black market those get sold into for activation.

I can't believe they didn't even have the decency to put the seat down.

Someone's been watching Casino lately. It's based on a true story. Pesci plays Tony the Ant Spilotro, who not only is the muscle at the casino, him and his "hole in the wall gang" start breaking into banks and jewelers by knocking holes in their walls.

Crazy that 436 phones is worth half a million bucks these days

Yet when someone’s phone gets stolen Apple says there’s nothing they can do.

All that work when they could’ve just walked in the front door, grabbed the phones, and walked right back out, with no resistance or concern about any consequences.
