Here's a link to the article and video package about Viva La Boba:


A group of thieves busted into a boba shop in the Inland Empire over the weekend. Since the business was cashless, they stole anything they could including a bunch of cookies. 

"They took a lot of cookies, but they left behind certain ones," co-owner Tansu Philip said. "They took all of our shirts that are hanging up here, but they left the buckets of shirts that are very visible in the back of the kitchen."

In addition to the cookies, the burglars stole the store's iPads, which were used to take orders, and caused a lot of damage during the break-in. 

"We work so hard everyday and so do our baristas," Philp said. "Our whole team is committed to building a community-oriented business and to see someone destroy that is really painful."

When customers heard about the break-in, the community flocked to support the business and lift it out of this tough time.
