The early morning robbery on Thursday, Sept. 6, was caught by two security cameras in the Apple Store at Promenade Mall, in Temecula, Calif., about 80 miles southeast of Los Angeles.

FUTURE:

CRIME:

The proximity to Hollywood suggests the thieves watched too many action movies. The footage shows what looks like a late-model blue car smashing its way under the front metal and glass entrance wall, into the unoccupied store. So far so good.

But the "entrance," though wrenched and twisted, seems to now work as if hinged at the top, or like a garage door, and the bottom edge falls back to the floor, behind the car.
