• Burglars made off with more than 400 iPhones from an Apple store in Washington, police said. 
• They got into the store by cutting a hole in the bathroom wall of a neighboring store, police said.
• The National Retail Federation has said organized retail crime is on the rise, growing by more than 26% in 2021. 

Burglars stole an entire wall of iPhones at an Apple Store outside Seattle after they cut a hole through a bathroom wall of a neighboring establishment, local police said.

They got away with more than $500,000 worth of Apple equipment — including around 436 iPhones, and also Apple Watches and other items, police in Lynnwood, Washington, said.
