\"apple-store-broken-window\"Waking up after a long evening, it seems no one had a better New Year’s Eve party than the four masked individuals who broke into the Apple<\/a> Store at Op\u00e9ra last night around 9:00PM. Having subdued a security guard, the four men spent forty minutes loading the entire store stock – estimated to be worth around \u20ac1 Million – into a van, while cops were nowhere to be seen, most of which on duty on the Champs\u00a0Elys\u00e9es.<\/p>\n

UPDATE: The original figure of \u20ac1 Million has not been verified, and the Paris Apple Store manager is expected to speak this afternoon (cf. LeFigaro<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n

UPDATE: LeFigaro claims hat between 300-400K\u20ac worth of goods and cash \u00a0(here<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first break-in in a French or even European Apple Store, this break-in far outweighs the previous string of US Apple Store robberies<\/a> from 2011. In one New Jersey Apple Store, robbers broke in through the front windows, and “snatch-and-grabbed” everything on display in about 30 seconds and ran. The police here described the robbers as “very well prepared” and “meticulous” – they approached the store 3 hours after it closed, as a security officer was walking out, subdued him, and took their time cleaning out the store (the security officer sustained minor injuries).<\/p>\n

The details of the robbery are not fully public, though LeParisien<\/a>\u00a0seemed to be the first to hear about the incident. It will now be up to Apple<\/a> to determine how they would like to pursue the case; it’s worth noting that the robbers of the New Jersey store were never found.<\/p>\n

This is the same Apple store which saw employee protests on the day the iPhone 5 came out<\/a>\u00a0earlier this year.<\/p>\n
