The second weekend of Coachella began much like the first – with lots of people, music, food, and people getting their cell phones stolen.
Sgt. Dan Marshall, Public Information Officer for the Indio Police Department, tweeted that 40 phones were recovered on Friday night and several arrests made.

It’s great that law enforcement is doing such a great job tracking down people that are stealing phones – but, if you are on your way to the festival, you might want to chain your iPhone to your body or, at the very least, keep it in your front pocket.
