The group left and then two came back. The men allegedly snatched a cell phone belonging to a 10-year-old girl.

One of the women it all happened very fast and they aren't sure whether the men made off with boxes of cookies as well.

"Everyone was turned around, except for my mom, and then the big one reached over and grabbed the phone," said Girl Scout Daley Eisenmann

Police have not made any arrests in the case but say they have obtained very clear surveillance video of the men.
