Stealing and smuggling iPhones seems to be pretty popular in China considering that just one week after a man was caught in Shenzhen trying to smuggle 95 iPhones by taping them to his body, three other men have been arrested for tunneling under a warehouse in Beijing and stealing 240 iPhone, worth somewhere around $230,000.

In this case, they took to shovels—or whatever else it is they used—to dig a 20-inch hole into the warehouse.
