Overview

  • The break-in occurred shortly before 2 a.m., with the crew entering from Via Mario de' Fiori and smashing the entrance using a vehicle.
  • Three masked men used torches inside and removed branded bags and accessories before fleeing the scene.
  • Commissariato Ponte Milvio officers and forensic teams processed the site and are analyzing surveillance recordings from nearby cameras.
  • Authorities have not confirmed the value of the haul, though one outlet reports roughly 140 items worth at least €300,000.
  • The raid fits a pattern of recent hits on luxury retailers in central Rome, with the suspects still at large.
