SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Some thieves just could not wait for Friday's release of Apple's iPhone X. Instead they swiped hundreds of the pricey phones right off a delivery truck in San Francisco.

The thieves grabbed the shipment off a UPS truck before they were delivered to an Apple Store at the Stonestown Mall.

Police said a witness saw three suspects wearing hooded sweatshirts come out of a white Dodge van.

Authorities believe the suspects were tracking the truck and made their move when the driver went into Macy's to make a delivery.

Police said at least 300 iPhone X's were stolen, making off with more than $300,000 in merchandise.
