The sounds of broken windows and barking resounded this Wednesday, October 5 in the Val-de-Fontenay shopping center (Val-de-Marne). The Histoire d’Or jewelry store was robbed by four criminals with hooded faces who smashed the windows with a sledgehammer. In their escape, one of the thieves was arrested thanks to the intervention of a security guard’s dog.
“We hid with another guard and waited for them to come out. I released the dog on the last one, says the canine officer. The dog jumped on his back causing him to fall. We then brought him under control despite the tear gas he threw at us. »
The arrested thief is a 16-year-old minor from Seine-Saint-Denis. A few minutes later, the police from the Seine-Saint-Denis anti-crime brigade got their hands on another suspect, also a minor. While the last two are still wanted. “The amount of the damage would amount to several thousand euros”, estimates the parquet floor of Créteil at the end of the day.
