Video Images of the £40m Graff Jewellery Robbers while escaping and shooting on the street
Posted on August 15th, 2009 by admin
Two men took a woman hostage and stole nearly £40m worth of necklaces, rings and watches from a Mayfair jewellers in Britain’s biggest jewel heist.
The men, dressed in suits, arrived in a taxi at the Graff Diamonds jewellers on New Bond Street about 4.40pm on Thursday. They were buzzed through an airlock into the store, which caters for clients including Mike Tyson, the Beckhams and Naomi Campbell.
Once inside they threatened staff with handguns, forcing them to lie on the floor, apart from one woman who they ordered to open a display cabinet.
They stole 43 pieces of jewellery in two minutes before forcing a female staff member to accompany them outside. Police believe this was to ensure that they were not trapped between the store’s two doors.
Their haul included a pair of white, round, diamond double-hoop earrings, a yellow diamond flower necklace, a platinum white Marquise diamond ring and a Chronograph men’s 45mm watch.
Once outside, they fired a warning shot into the ground before fleeing in a blue BMW. Police say they then drove to Old Bond Street before abandoning their car in Dover Street when it collided with a taxi.
They changed cars, firing another gunshot into the ground as they were chased by members of the public, getting into a silver Mercedes which they drove through Berkeley Square, before changing vehicles again in Farm Street this time into a Ford Galaxy or Volkswagen Sharan.

Your obviously not average joe, and cannot comprehend why someone would do this. Why does it bother you so much? Just watch the film heat, with al pacino and robert de niro, you might change your mind. These lads have got some balls, they are risking at least 12 years in prison, and therefore, deserve their reward. it was’nt your mum or nana getting burgled by a smackhead. It was professional thieves robbin a scummy diamond gaff thats insured to the hilt. compo galore for the staff. GUDTIMES!!!!

Sorry for the harsh wording but -All of you people wishing them well are such ing retards! Don’t you realize that this raid will only finance the crime organization they probably come from - involving prositution, drugs, murder. It’s not like they’re going to give the money to the third world fund. It is scary how many people actually praise the use of violence and crime for personal gain!

Thank you for …
Thank you for including that. We are in the wake of those politicans allowances where many of them actually stole. And we have major banking insitutions like Golden Sachs who ask for government money only to throw at very rich bankers, oh but as long as youve worked for it aye. But when you walk into the job centre you’re told that they can not help because the govt has cut back on advisor services.
