Even phone company not immune to robberies
By the A.M. Costa Rica staff
Stickup operators made a haul this weekend when they intercepted a delivery driver taking BlackBerry cell phones to various outlets of the Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad.
The institute said that the driver was confronted on the public street in La Sabana and that the crooks made off with 75 of the devices.
The company is maintaining a list of series numbers in case would-be buyers want to consult them before completing a transaction. The phone company said that the devices had been disabled because the series numbers were given to the distributor.
