Robbers Take Phones From T-Mobile
Men appeared to flee on foot, police still investigating.
Two men used cutting tools to sever the security devices off the cell phones they eventually stole in a heist Thursday afternoon.
The suspects fled with three iPhones and two Blackberry devices taken from T-Mobile, 541 South Grand Avenue, a little after 6 p.m.
The men walked into the store, went over to the phones and cut them off the shelves, said Lieutenant James DeMond of Glendora Police. The men then began walking out and an employee tried to stop them.
"One of the employees stood in front of the guys and he [a suspect] pushed him out of the way. They left westbound through the parking lot," DeMond said.
The men appeared to flee on foot and out of sight. No one reported seeing a getaway vehicle.
The first suspect was described as a male white, 35 to 40 years old, about 5 feet 10 inches tall. He wore a black and beige plaid jacket and prescription glasses.
The second suspect was described as a male Black, 35 to 40 years old, about 5 feet 4 inches tall, heavyset, had buzzed hair and wore a gray shirt.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Glendora Police Department at (626) 914-8250.
