Interesting... so you had inside information about Oakridge mall since you work there, access to the mall since you took the day off, I would bet probably no alibi as to where you were, definitely motive since you work at a mall and probably want some money... I would say you are now the prime suspect. :rofl:

It's an inside job. The security was part of it. They made a scene so everyone's attention is on the security and the robbers get away scratch free. They'r all part of the plan.

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - Police say the shooter in last night's armed robbery at Oakridge Centre is just 15 years old.
The teenager is accused of firing several shots before he was arrested outside.
Longley tells us three others were able to get away. "Two of these men were seen getting into an older model red van outside the mall, which was driven by a fourth suspect."
The Surrey teenager was arrested after allegedly firing another shot and trying to make a run for it outside of the shopping centre.
Police say the teen has been charged with assault with a weapon, possession of stolen property over $5,000 and a number of firearms offences including possession of a restricted firearm, pointing a firearm and using of a firearm in commission of an offence.
They say around 8:30 p.m., a man entered Montecristo Jewellers and fired several shots, demanding merchandise. Two others stood outside, apparently beating the store's security guard.
He is due in youth court October 4th.
Oakridge security is contracted out.

the security guy does not work for oakridge but instead probably contracted by monte cristo. all that guy does is walk around and hover around the front entrance of the store.

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - Three teenage boys have been charged with armed robbery, after the Montecristo Jewellers in Oakridge Mall was held up in late September.
A 17-year-old boy and a 16-year-old boy, both from Vancouver, are now behind bars. A now-16 year old boy from Surrey was arrested at the scene and has already been charged.
Sergeant Dale Weidman says they don't think it's linked to organized crime and the teens were essentially recruited. "They are not the organizers of this crime. They carried it out. The people that put these youths up to it, they're walking around today free while the youths are sitting in jail."
Police say they have a good idea of who recruited the teens, but wouldn't say who.

Funny thing was that i saw a security guard drag some guy off a wheelchair outside near the skytrain entrance at Cambie, what was that about? he had a briefcase i believe, perhaps the guard thought he was in on it? VPD van was like right at the corner, so it just came over lol.

I think the problem with that is the fact that the product (ipads etc.) are located mostly in the backroom whereas jewerly are often out in display cases. It is easier for individuals to do a quick smash and grab.
And when stealing technology, there is always a risk of it being tracked via GPS

The ipads you CAN easily steal are probably the ones that are beat up demos that all say they are not for sale on the back. The ones people actually want are gonna be a lot harder to steal. Good luck selling ipads in beat up condition with no box for market value
