The proprietor was shocked the suspects hit the shop in the course of the day.
“I do all the jewelry, and all the stuff that was in the showcases were my own pieces, and just everything disappeared. This idea of coming and hitting us at this time is so brazen. You would think that they would come when it’s not crowded,” retailer proprietor Alan Oskouian advised KABC-TV.
The theft startled and frightened the 5 within the store.
“The sound of (the glass breaking) echoed so loudly, it really sounded like a gunshot,” Mr. Oskouian’s enterprise associate, Michael, who didn’t present a surname, advised the Orange County Register.
Mr. Oskouian confirmed that everybody was protected, telling KNBC-TV, “Thank God the two [customers] are safe and we are safe, but our jewelry is gone.”
