Theft inside the jewelry "Chanel" in Paris

Four people committed a robbery on Thursday, inside the Chanel jeweler in Paris. According to the images, the people used motorcycles, while witnesses at the scene told about what they saw.

"They stopped with two motorcycles and went inside. They ordered those present to lie on the ground and then collected the jewels and luxury watches. Then they left on their motorbikes while large automatic weapons were seen in their hands," said one witness.

The event took place in front of the French Ministry of Justice. No injuries were reported as the thieves fled along the Rue de la Paix. /tch/
