According to an Apple Store official, he would have never guessed that the shop was situated next to the Store and that the perpetrators must have had access to the mall's layout to pull off the heist. He noted that the thieves cut through the shop's hall without damaging any pipes, suggesting that the entire robbery was carefully planned and executed with precision.
Meanwhile, Mike Atkinson, the coffee appliance shop's owner took to Twitter and explained, "Two men broke into one of our retail locations. Why? To cut a hole in our bathroom wall to access the Apple Store next door and steal $500k worth of iPhones." The shop he manages caters to a highly targeted customer base.
Though nothing was stolen from the coffee shop, it will still have to bear the cost of repairing the bathroom wall. It had to spend $1500 to replace locks and repair the hole in the bathroom. Atkinson expressed relief that no employees from Seattle Coffee Gear or Apple were present during the heist.
