Investors who have voted Apple shares down by more than 24% in the last
month may not be fans of the newly-released iPad Mini, but not everyone is
disappointed with the product.
The New York Post says this morning that Apple got hit in a Goodfellas-style
raid by a pair of crooks at New York‘s John F. Kennedy International
Airport on Wednesday night, who stole a shipment of the tablets that was
coming into the U.S. for the holiday season.
According to The Post, the crooks arrived at a airport warehouse around 11
PM in a white tractor trailer “with the name CEVA on the side” and grabbed
about 3,600 of the newly-minted iPad Minis, which had just landed from
manufacturing facilities in China. They used the building’s own forklift
for the raid, The Post says.
“They might have gotten more, but the thieves drove off leaving three more
pallets of the Apple tablets behind after they were challenged by an airport
worker returning from dinner,” the Post reported, citing sources familiar
with the investigation. As of last night, the robbers were still at large.
The iPads are worth about $1.5 million.
JFK, one of the largest international air cargo facilities in the United
States, has a history of headline-grabbing crimes. The warehouse where the
iPads were taken, building 261, is the same building robbed in the famous
1978 Lufthansa heist, where a small team of mobsters stole almost $6
million in cash and jewels. The heist, later featured in the film GoodFellas
, was among the largest in American history.
The theft is, of course, meaningless to Apple’s holiday sales. Though the
iPad Minis were likely among the first to land in the United States (Apple
Insider reports that customers were informed Tuesday that new tablets were
enroute), Apple sold more than 3 million of the units within just a couple
days of unveiling it in late October. |
