The next video he shared shows the robbers celebrating:
The incident took place at Huener Jewelry on Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood, USA, between June 17 and June 18. The group reportedly took the entire inventory, including several one-of-a-kind pieces.
“At first, I thought they like cut a hole through the wall, and they got in, and they did a quick robbery and they left, but it turned out… it took more than 24 hours,” Goukasian told KABC, adding that the store's alarms never went off. He further said that the robbers made two trips, one late at night and one in early morning.

"We were quite surprised when we saw the security footage from a recent break in at our Bakery HQ. Seems like yoga is a must before breaking in,” the Australia-based bakery wrote in their Instagram post.
