A 50-year-old man was arrested Wednesday in London in connection with the largest jewel heist in Britain’s history. The heist occurred last Thursday when two men in their 30s walked into Graff Jewelers in central London and, threatening employees with handguns, stole $65 million dollars worth of jewelry.
Holy shiz!
The criminals used several vehicles, switching repeatedly to shake the police. It’s unclear at this point exactly what role the arrested man played in the heist, but a crime of this level was certainly carried out by more than the two frontmen.
London police released surveillance footage of the men entering the store and hope that someone will recognize the thieves and turn them in.
