SEAL BEACH (CBSLA) — Police asked for the public's help Monday to identify two men they say stole cell phones and other electronics from a T-Mobile store in Seal Beach.
The burglary happened last Tuesday at about 5:15 p.m. at T-Mobile, 13979 Seal Beach Blvd.
Surveillance video released by the police show three suspects yanking phones and other electronics from their display blocks and ripping off the cables that secured them to the displays. The loss was estimated at about $4,000 worth of electronics.
