The assault was filmed by an Internet user who posted the video on social networks. Four people dressed in black, masked and wearing helmets can clearly be seen there. Three leave the store and the other is on the motorcycle, with an assault rifle on her shoulder. Two leave on the motorcycle and the other two on the scooter.

The store is located on Rue de la Paix, near Place Vendôme, known for the presence of several large jewelers.

A saleswoman from a nearby clothing store, Anastasia Martino, 26, recounted that “around 2:30 p.m.” she was smoking a cigarette on the street when she saw “a man alone with a Kalashnikov On a motorbike”. “Two minutes later, three other men came out [de la tienda Chanel] with three large black bags. They also had automatic weapons. They got on two motorcycles and quickly set off,” he added.

A supervisor at the same clothing store, Cyril Ngo, 31, said the assault “lasted for at least 10 minutes.”

“A customer tipped us off and we called the police immediately, but they didn’t believe us. We had to call them back, so they would take us seriously and intervene,” he added.

Shortly after the events, the Rue de la Paix was closed by the police and the store had lowered its curtains.

Last year, several luxury stores were robbed in the French capital, with various types of procedures. At the end of July, a man stole more than two million euros worth of merchandise from a store in Chaumet, near the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, and managed to flee on a skateboard. But the next day he was arrested along with an accomplice and most of the loot was recovered.

On September 7, a gang looted a Bulgari store, on Place Vendôme, for an amount estimated at 10 million euros, but its members were arrested the same day after a police chase.
