Three men are arrested for stealing phones from a Walmart.

It happened Wednesday at the Chapman Highway store. Kurt Johnson and Antoine McGee of Texas and Kilvaris Downing of Alabama were taken into custody and charged with theft after employees noticed 10 cell phones missing while auditing inventory.

The three suspects reportedly work for a third party company that remodels locking cases for businesses, so they were able to use a key to open the locked shelves.

Security video showed the three men taking the phones.
