A daring thief made off with millions in valuables from a London home, leaving the owners and police in shock over the brazen crime
London: Police are on the hunt for a burglar who broke into a mansion and stole over $13 million in jewelry, designer bags, and cash. This happened while the owners were away, but staff were present.
The owners, an Instagram influencer and her developer husband, were not home during the break-in. A housekeeper almost ran into the armed thief, which is pretty scary!
Detective Constable Paulo Roberts from the Metropolitan Police called it a bold crime. The thief had an unknown weapon and didn’t seem to care about the risks.
Among the stolen treasures were a stunning 10.73-carat diamond ring and some pricey handbags worth around $189,000. Talk about a heist!
The homeowners are offering a hefty reward of $628,000 for any info that leads to the thief’s capture, plus 10% of the value of any recovered items. That’s a serious incentive!
It seems the burglar got in by climbing through a second-floor window. Surveillance footage even caught him wandering the halls just before a maid stepped off the elevator. What a close call!
This mansion is located near Regent’s Park, in one of the poshest areas of London. It’s wild to think something like this could happen in such a fancy neighborhood.
