Burglars tunnel through wall to steal $10m in goods from LA jewelry store
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/16/los-angeles-jewelry-store-burglary(I don't post here often because I get chased away. Hope this doesn't offend anyone's fee-fee's)
Heist took place at Love Jewels in downtown Los Angeles on Sunday after thieves bore through levels of concrete
Burglars tunneled through a concrete wall to gain access to a Los Angeles jewelry store, making off with at least $10m worth of watches, pendants, gold chains and other merchandise, police said.
. . .
In security video obtained by KTTV, the sound of a drill can be heard from inside the store. Once inside, the burglars apparently cut the cameras’ wires.
The TV station showed holes cut in a large safe, overturned jewel cases and an empty bottle of scotch whisky.

Of course almost all retail jewelry is priced at 5-10 times actual worth. But the thieves had the good taste to drink Scotch. I wonder which brand?
