Video: Four Steal $30K Worth of Cell Phones From Manassas Mall

The surveillance footage from the Radio Shack at Manassas Mall showed that four suspects were involved in the theft on Dec. 20, Prince William County Police said.

Three suspects distracted employees while another person stole $30,000 worth of cell phones from the Manassas Mall in December, Prince William County Police said. 

Police released three videos on Tuesday that showed the four suspects involved in the heist on Dec. 20, between 4 and 4:30 p.m. Employees reported that same evening that around that time, the store became very busy with customers and during that time someone gained access to a locked rear stockroom. 

Three suspects distracted the employees while the fourth suspect stole 38 cell phones from the stockroom, police said. Employees realized the theft after all the suspects left the business.
