Levallois-Perret: 56,000 euros worth of watches stolen from a jewelry and watch store. The criminal, who appears to have acted alone, threatened the employee with a handgun before seizing eight watches on Monday evening.
When the police arrived on site – themselves alerted by the private security company Verisure after the alarm was triggered in the jewelry store – the criminal had already fled, on foot, towards Paris. In 2023, Hauts-de-Seine recorded 181 armed robberies, a statistical figure that has started to rise again after several consecutive years of decline.
