GOODYEAR, Ariz. - The cockiness of this gang of thieves makes them extremely dangerous.

Phoenix police sergeant Darren Burch said that at about 7:30 p.m. on Friday, September 10, 2010, the thieves hit a cell phones store.

"Four males ranging in ages from 17-24 years of age go into a T-Mobile store in Goodyear," Burch described the thieves.

It's a busy store on McDowell at about 154th Avenue.

"They do … a takedown robbery, where they start shoving people to the floor, hitting people and taking the cell phones.

The customers' personal cell phones.

"They end up taking 10 or so cell phones, hurting people and then running out," Burch said.

The stores cameras caught some great pictures of these guys.

"Somebody's going to recognize these people and earn up to $1,000 cash reward," Burch said.

"Luckily these subjects didn't have weapons, because who knows what could've occurred," Burch said. "We're hoping to get them off the street before they do get weapons and make this even worse."
