Teenagers swarm, rob Apple store in Hingham
The Boston Globe ^ | September 6, 2016 | Olivia Quintana

Teenage boys rushed into an Apple store in Hingham on Monday evening and stole more than 20 phones, police said.

Ten to 12 boys went into the store in the Derby Street Shoppes about 5:40 p.m. and stole 22 phones before fleeing, Hingham police said in a Twitter posting.

Police said the teenagers were all wearing sweatshirts with their hoods on.

Hingham Police Sergeant Steven Dearth said a witness saw some of the boys leaving in what looked like a white Ford Taurus with the license plates covered up. The witness lost sight of another group of boys once they entered the parking lot, so there may have been another vehicle involved.

Police are investigating, and waiting for the Apple store to send surveillance camera footage, Dearth said...

“Obviously, we’ve seen things where multiple people were involved,” Dearth said. “But we haven’t seen anything quite like this that’s organized with this many people. We haven’t seen anything like that, and we have a lot of retail places there.”

The incident comes several weeks after an organized group of teenagers flooded a Roslindale convenience store July 24 and began throwing and stealing merchandise.

Something is missing from this article about teenagers stealing phones. I can’t quite put my finger on it...

Perhaps you might find WCVB's coverage more informative.

Found "invalid on multiple counts of obviousness in light of prior art." That's called progress.
