A surveillance film was collected by the cops, but as part of an ongoing investigation it can not be released to the public at this time. The Apple Store had no employees inside at the time of the robbery and the mall was closed for the night. While nothing was stolen from Seattle Coffee Gear, the hole in the wall and the broken locks will cost the store $1,500 to repair. Marks added that based on the way the thieves were able to cut through the coffee shop’s bathroom wall without hitting any pipes, plenty of research went into this robbery.
A spokesman for Brookfield Properties, the company that owns the mall, said that mall ownership is “angry” about the incident and is “working with Lynnwood Police.” It also called the incident an isolated event and spoke about its strong security program. Speaking of the Lynwood police, they said that the theft took place last Sunday after 7 pm local time and Apple Store employees were not aware of the theft until the next morning.
