"I realized that these guys were coming to do something," said the witness. He notes that security just watched. "Basically they were just standing there looking at their cell phone."In San Francisco, Apple has started placed uniformed police officers in front of its stores to prevent further incidents. "I think it's just an overall deterrent when they are casing these locations on whether or not they're going to go in and steal these products," said San Francisco Police Officers Association President Tony Montoya.
