Oh then of course robbery is down, why bother sticking someone up for pocket change no one carries when you can just steal their phone and escape on an ebike?
Gee, if only we had some sort of other high-availability comms system we could use. Maybe divide the country up into geographic cells and put a transmitter in each one that sends out alerts to portable devices that people carry on them. You could even make the comms two-way so you could call for help if required. I wonder why no-one's ever thought of that?
Incidentally, I have never in my entire life received any kind of alert over AM radio. I have however received several on my phone, generally over incoming severe weather.

Imagine being so well off that you don't even notice being off by ten orders of magnitude. Meanwhile, there are people dealing with negative exponents.
Robbery is theft using force or the immediate threat of force. The article you linked to says that much of the phone theft is done by pickpocketing.
