C'mon. Anyone who's made a detailed study of "Mission Impossible" could do this, right? :biggrin:

They never touched the floor — that would have set off an alarm.

They didn’t appear on store security cameras. They cut a hole in the roof and came in at a spot where the cameras were obscured by advertising banners.

And they left with some $26,000 in laptop computers, departing the same way they came in — down a 3-inch gas pipe that runs from the roof to the ground outside the store.

"The thieves knew the layout of the store and apparently knew the banners would block the view of security cameras, he said. "The tools they had to bring, the alarms they had to circumvent — it certainly required a lot of high-level planning," Ryan said.

High - Level planning or someone on the inside? Either way, all I can think of when I hear this is the theme song from Mission Impossible.

If I'm not mistaken this also happened to some Circuit Cities a few years back down here in GA.

Seems like a lot of effort for a small take.

Practice?

Possibly boredom, group of teenagers, maybe one works there, or they have a friend who does.

Maybe check local business listings for 'Ninja Advertising Banners, Inc'? :)
