“Beijing police said Wednesday that they had detained three men suspected of stealing 240 iPhone 6 handsets, valued at about 1.4 million yuan (228,496 U.S. dollars), from a Beijing warehouse,” Xinhua reports. “Police said the three men broke into the facility between Dec. 12 and 13 via a 50-cm hole dug out of the wall.

Oh yeah, it NEVER happens in the good old US. Hypocrite or what?
50 cm does not make it a tunnel.
