SOMERVILLE, MASS. (WHDH) - A Somerville cellphone store says it is asking for help after it was robbed twice this month.
A store employee says on Sunday a person came in wearing a winter jacket and fled with a phone.
Earlier this month, a person came in with a bag and filled it with $10,000 worth of iPhones and iPads before fleeing the store.
Owner Nabin Basnet says the losses are hard for his small business to absorb.
“It’s easy income, they know even if they take it nothing is going to happen,” he said.
Basnet says he has reported both incidents to the police.
