Assailants make off with three million crowns worth of jewellery

Police have estimated that damage or losses to a jeweller’s robbed at the weekend in Řevnice near Prague are worth around three million crowns. Two unidentified assailants held up the shop on Saturday morning, slightly injuring the owner. They took gold jewellery. The crooks then escaped in a personal vehicle bearing license plates that had been stolen the previous evening. Police have not said whether the owner has been questioned yet. Last year a similar robbery took place at a jeweller’s in the centre of Beroun, also outside of Prague; then, three masked men took jewels worth more than one million crowns.
