From the above video, you can see how the thief, who was wearing a jacket and a hat with cartoon print had tried his level best to break into the store. After failing to unlock the door, the man decided to smash through the glass instead.
Later, he was seen picking all the mobile phones from the display unit on the table and quickly walked away from the scene.
Shown below are the screenshots (footage) of the thief attempting to break into the store:

However, according to an employee, it is later discovered that the stolen mobiles turned out to be demo phones, which makes them worthless. The real mobile phones were actually locked away in a safe place inside the store.

The employee also said that replacing new glass doors would actually cost more than the loss of the demo phones. There was no mention whether the police managed to trace the suspect but with the burglar’s skills, it probably wouldn’t take long for them to find him!
