Mauboussin jewelry store gets robbed
A few days before Christmas Eve, the famous Mauboussin jewelry store was robbed. Jewelry worth $312,000 (300,000 euros) was stolen.
On the morning of December 24, a security officer noticed a broken window at the Mauboussin store. After reviewing the surveillance footage, authorities saw an unidentified man entering the store, stealing the jewelry, and quickly fleeing the scene.
