Drones Becoming Newest "Hot Theft" Item for Criminals

The new and quickly developing technological drone industry is also becoming a new booming target for criminals.
 
LAS VEGAS - Aug. 26, 2015 - PRLog -- Drones Plus is North America's largest retail distributor, currently a leader in its industry with 12 stores in the US and Canada. Drones Plus is headquartered in Las Vegas, NV.  In the early morning on August 26, 2015, Drones Plus in Studio City (Los Angeles area) had a burglary (2nd one in 2 months at this particular location), stealing over 15K of merchandise and smashing through armored windows. It was done by a team of thieves that appeared to know what they were going after. Although this is being covered in Studio City and NBC picked it up as well, the bigger story here is the fact that as a brand new industry, Drones stores are now becoming a hot target for criminals, with top of the market, high-ticket items in stock, especially as we approach the upcoming holiday season. This is their chain's 6th break in, within a year.

Attached is the link for the high definition burglary video from this morning's Drone Theft at Drone Plus located in Studio City at:

11376 Ventura Blvd, Studio City, CA 91604.

Over $15,000 was stolen in a brazen, early morning break-in with 5 perpetrators entering the store... clearly, a premeditated burglary.  This store was previously burglarized on July 19th of this year and it's the 6th theft in our chain within the last year. Drones Plus is North America's largest drone retailer. Drones Plus is available for interviews regarding why drones are hot items not only for consumers but also thieves.
