Thieves steal iPhones in rooftop heist

Thieves have made off with millions of dollars worth of iPhones in a daring heist from a Belgian warehouse. The Sydney Morning Herald reports.

The thieves climbed a fire ladder to the roof of the warehouse, Belgium's De Standaard said.

They then entered the building through a hole cut directly above where the 4000 phones, which had a market value of about $3.2 million, were being stored.

The iPhones were destined for mobile operator Mobistar, which had a long waiting list for the popular handsets.
