Gun gang robs downtown jewelry store in two minutes

In the center of Paris, four armed raiders robbed a jewelry boutique De Beers near Place Vendôme. According to preliminary data, the value of the stolen jewelry may exceed 1 million euros. The criminals fled on motorcycles, they are wanted by the police.

The attack took place on November 12 at around 11:15 on Rue de la Pé, one of the most prestigious shopping districts of the French capital. According to local media, four men in dark clothes and motorcycle helmets drove up to the store on two motorcycles. Some were armed with items resembling Kalashnikov assault rifles.

Three attackers broke into the boutique while their accomplice remained outside. Threatening with weapons, the raiders ordered staff and visitors not to move, after which they took the jewelry and fled. The robbery lasted only two or three minutes.

There were no shots fired during the attack. None of the people in the store were injured, but the staff experienced severe stress.

The boutique is less than 300 metres from the French Ministry of Justice. Despite heavy traffic and the proximity of government offices, the perpetrators managed to leave the scene without hindrance.

Paris prosecutors have opened an investigation into an organized armed robbery. The search for the raiders is carried out by a specialized criminal police unit investigating banditry.

De Beers confirmed its cooperation with the investigation and temporarily closed the store. French journalists subsequently published eyewitness accounts and videos of the suspects fleeing. All four are still wanted.
