Armed Robbery: Why You Shouldn’t Use Your iPhone at Haight and Webster While Waiting for MUNI at 4:00 PM

Cause somebody will pull out a gun and steal it from you.

Let’s check the story from Ann Mannix, SFPD Captain of Northern Station:

“Yesterday a guy was waiting for the bus at Haight and Webster (4:15 PM) looking at his phone not paying attention to his surroundings when someone walked right up on him, pointed a gun and stole his iPhone 4.

I bet if he was aware of his surroundings the criminal wouldn’t have targeted him.

Conceal your valuables and be aware of your surroundings, always!”

Apparently, this isn’t a good place to try to hold onto your cellie.

Oh well.

Lower Haight is For Lovers…

…and armed cell phone thieves.

Enjoy!

    I live at Haight and Webster. There are no Muni stops there so his first mistake was waiting there for a bus…

    Well, that’s a fair point. I thought they might have moved the stop after the fire, but i don’t know…
