Crooks Find New Opportunities at Starbucks

According to the San Francisco Chronicle crooks and robbers are finding new opportunities at Starbucks, I'm not talking special employment programs. Jaxon Van Derbeken in his article relays the story of a 40-year old man who got stabbed in a Starbucks and his $2500 Apple Power Book was stolen.

Talk about impatient crooks, couldn't they have waited until he went to the bathroom? Maybe they felt uncomfortable because they wanted to play it cool but didn't know how to order a medium coffee. ("Is a tall coffee big, or is a tall coffee small" they were overheard saying...just kidding).

Hey kids...be careful in your Wi-Fi hot spots...Criminals might be out to get your laptop!

Info discovered at Starbucks gossip.
