Shocking surveillance video showed the moments reckless thieves rammed an SUV through the doors of a Southern California jewelry store during a chaotic $1 million heist.
Video captured the vehicle crashing through the front of Classic Jewelers in Anaheim Hills on Friday in broad daylight before masked bandits were seen smashing display cases inside the store.
Owner Ramzy Tabello described the horrifying ordeal as “the scariest thing of my life,” according to the Orange County Register.
After ransacking the business, the suspects ditched the SUV at the scene and fled in two Dodge Chargers. An employee ran out to take a photo of their license plates, Tabello added.
The suspects were then involved in two separate car crashes, police said. All eight suspects, including a minor, were later taken into custody.
