Bond Street, London, was the scene for something out of a movie last Thursday as two well dressed thieves pulled off one of Britain’s biggest robberies in broad daylight. £40 Million worth of jewels were stolen by 2 armed robbers who bypassed security before picking up 43 diamond items and escaping in getaway cars.

2 men, believed to be from London, arrived in a taxi and proceeded to walk past security before threatening staff and briefly seizing one woman as a hostage. They then quickly picked up 43 items, totalling £40 Million before escaping in a blue BMW.

The video below shows the moment the robbers escaped firing a warning gunshot as they left Graff Diamonds’ Store. No one was hurt or injured during the incident and police have yet to make any arrests.

With the incident happening last Thursday, it’s clear that the Police don’t have many good leads and so are seeking help from the public, instead of keeping the story quiet as they had planned to do.
