Their technique is daring.
On Sunday, burglars broke through the wall of a jewelry store in Bouscat, in the agglomeration of Bordeaux (Gironde).
Between 500,000 and 800,000 euros of jewelry were stolen, indicates the prosecution, quoted by France Bleu.
According to the first elements, Sunday morning, the thieves would have pierced the wall of an unoccupied neighboring shop using a mass or a jackhammer.
Then they would have cut the electricity to neutralize the CCTV cameras.
In a few minutes, the criminals thus got their hands on a very important booty.
The alarm went off shortly before 11 a.m.
