Apple fans waiting in an early-morning line for the release of the new iPhone were robbed at gunpoint on Friday, Houston police said.
It was reported around 5 a.m. at the AT&T store on Westheimer Road at Chimney Rock. Police said people were camped outside the store when two armed guys got out of a car.
One of the victims told KHOU 11 News the robbers walked up and started making demands.
“’Gimme everything you’ve got.’ I emptied out my pocket, and he takes away my iPhone, my iPad -- because it was on the ground already,” the victim said. “He’s like, ‘give me your wallet.’ I’m like, ‘I don’t have one – come look.’”

“I’m like”
South Houston? Hmm, let me guess...
The data and the remembered passwords will be worth way more than the take.
if the perps had waited to rob them AFTER they had their new phones the death toll could have been in the millions
Nope that is not south Houston. It is a few blocks west of the West Loop 610. Not downtown but pretty much in the center of Houston, a few blocks from the Galleria. Not a sleazy part of town. .
Well then, they are obviously Causasian, Native American, Asian, Latino, or Pacific Islander.
I mean, OBVIOUSLY.
Wait...there’s no 9mm “app” on an iPhone?
im like saying like I know it is like obvious
Isn’t it amazing Laz, how they are careful to tell you what color car the perps sped away in but can’t tell you the color of the perps?
“’Gimme everything you’ve got.’
Meet Mr. Kimber.
And I was like Oh My God, someone like took my phone thingy LOL..no perp description..let me guess..Amish?
I was waiting for the iPhone early as well, but I was packin’.

Don’t you guys worry about a thing. It’s completely obvious the robbers were Caucasian, Native American, Asian, Latino, or Pacific Islander.
So, the camper-outers are too smart by half. They brought their existing Mac devices, but neglected to pack a weapon.
There is no description of the perpetrators because any idiot that would stand in line for hours and hours just to be first on his/her block or project to have the latest and greatest gadget is probably just too stupid to describe the people that robbed him/her.
No madam. Clearly, Caucasian, Native American, Asian, Latino, or Pacific Islander.
I feel if we continuously mock the press with the above assertion, it may EVENTUALLY shame them into the race embargo they routinely exhibit.
Well I am going to worry because the only people living around here ARE Caucasian, Native American, Asian, Latino, or Pacific Islander.
