Expensive Jewelry

Here are two recent interesting news stories
about original ways people have tried to
steal jewelry in Tokyo.

Over the New Year holidays, some burglars
drilled a hole in the wall of a jewelry store in Ginza.
They stole 200 watches worth about
￥300 million (300,000,000円)! Five people were
arrested in Hong Kong soon after.

Here in Shinjuku, a man went to Tiffany and
tried on four rings worth about ￥16 million (16,000,000円).
Then he ran out of the store wearing the rings!
A female Tiffany employee chased him,
but she couldn't catch him.
