An Apple Store in California was robbed in broad daylight, with many customers in the store at the time of robbery.

The robbers managed to pick up an iPhone 6, iPhone 7, iPhone 8, and even an iPhone X from the Store.

This incident happened this Saturday morning at the Apple Store located inside the Fashion Fair Mall in Fresno, California. ABC7 News reports that the group of men entered the store and started grabbing all the things they could grab from the display tables at the store. They managed to steal a total of 26 products from the store, worth $27,000. They took all the things they could, including many iPhones, and ran out of the store in a matter of seconds, all of this, while customers and Apple employees looked on.
