The burglars cut the alarms, the cameras before the robbery of Los Angeles jewelry

The news of the break -in at Love Jewels quickly spread among the owner’s family thanks to alarming text messages.

Someone had entered the store this weekend, the first worker to arrive told others, and he had entered one of the safes.

But while relatives arrived at the company off Broadway and 5th rue in downtown Los Angeles on Monday morning, the scope of the loss was clear; Millions of dollars of gold and jewelry had disappeared and it was written throughout the owner’s face.

“When I got here, I could see my father’s reaction – I could see that they had everything,” the owner of the store at Times said on Wednesday.

Police said on Sunday evening that a group of determined thieves have pierced, hammered and climbed through several walls in and around the former city center Roxie theater and burst into love jewelry, Reina de Oro, and stole approximately $ 10 million in goods.

The video of the consequences published by the store on social networks showed the company’s office in complete disarray, with documents and debris covering the land and the mutilated shell of an empty safe.

A handful of earrings and silver chains were everything left on Wednesday.

“There is nothing left,” said the owner, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of his safety. The contents of the safes was family life savings and was not guaranteed, he said.

LAPD investigators determined that the robbery had started around 9:30 p.m. on Sunday, but the family said that the burglar crew could have started cutting adjacent properties earlier. We think that burglars are professionals who have spent hours in the business. The Modus Operandi of robbery could help reduce the search for suspects.

According to the family, the company’s security alarm was disabled and a rings in the rings of the store cut just before 10 p.m., another company security wire was cut a few hours earlier, so the family said it was difficult to identify at the start of the break -in.

The family offers a reward of $ 100,000 for the restoration of their goods and only works online at the moment, said the owner.

Meanwhile, the large FBI flight group intervened to help the investigation.

Security cameras of neighboring companies captured the burglars while they entered and came out of a vacant showcase. At one point, they dragged a trash can from a vehicle and seemed to wear construction equipment, according to the family.

In the burglary security video, a massive exercise can be heard by sculpting through the main wall of Castlelike, which makes a hole big enough for a person to pass.

Captain of Lapd Raul Jvel, who oversees the central division of the department, said that the thieves killed in the building from a vacant window.

“They went for very thick old walls. They went to a small room then through a second wall,” said Jovel. “It was a serious excavation.”

It was not the first time that burglars took place at Love Jewels.

About 13 years ago, a similar breakage was thwarted when the culprits were captured in action, said the owner.

LAPD investigators say that recent burglars, after entering, cut the flow of security cameras, and that there are no images inside the company. However, LAPD medical-legal experts examine the scene of fingerprints and DNA.

The family thinks that there are more security sequences for neighboring companies that show the vehicle of a suspect and ask anyone with more information to share with the police. A gofundme has been set up to help the family compensate for their costs and help them maintain their business afloat.
