GILBERT, AZ - Police say a man and a teenager have been arrested in connection with a recent burglary at a computer store in Gilbert.

Authorities say more than $9,000 worth of products were stolen from the Apple Store at the SanTan Village mall on June 29 and have now been recovered.

Arrested Monday were 18-year-old Derek Hunter and a 16-year-old boy whose name is not being released. Police say both suspects are facing burglary and criminal damage charges.

An alert store employee noticed two males acting suspiciously inside the same computer store on Monday and called police. Officers noticed that Hunter and the teen matched the description of the two suspects who committed last month's burglary.
