WMCTV,
Forbes and
CBS News reports that Robert Blake, a web developer and his girlfriend, Amy Parker headed to an Apple store in central Arkansas to pay their respects to Steve Jobs but instead became witnesses to a burglary in progress.
Robert Blake says
he saw a man running away from the Little Rock store Wednesday night shortly after the company said Jobs, the company founder, had died.
He first thought the man was another mourner for Jobs but then watched him as he hopped into a getaway car with another guy and sped away.
Robert Blake and his girlfriend, Amy Parker, told The Associated Press that when they showed up at the suburban Little Rock store Wednesday night, they didn't initially realize what they were witnessing.
Blake's girlfriend immediately phoned the police who later confirmed the suspects made off with iPads, iPods and laptops. No arrests have been made.
