Stories about iPods getting ri ed off in New York City are nothing new. Crowded subways, buses and Starbucks are breeding grounds for theft. But those of us who live in the Big A le like to think that the subur are safe have . Tur out we're deluding ourselves, as is proven by the fact that in Riverdale, Utah, three hoodlums (who ha en to be from New York) made off with 39 iPods along with a few 2 games from the local Target in a mere fifteen seconds! The caper itself was rather impre ive, as the surveillance camera revealed. The thieves had a lookout in the aisle and a driver waiting outside in the getaway car. And somehow it seems they were able to smuggle their loot out in an oversized pair of pants! They were otted 10 minutes later when they tried to pull the same thing in another Target a few miles away, but left empty-handed after not being able to break the secure iPod case before police arrived. A Target security guard managed to get their lice e plate and just a short while later they were caught by the co heading toward the interstate. Police say the punks were pla ing to hit other Target destinatio as well - they found a map of every Target store in Utah and Nevada in the car and similar ma of Arizona.
A arently Target is an easy target when it comes to high-priced toys. Perha they should co ider the Targus iPod Lock?
