Police are searching for four men who robbed a luxury brand good store on Thursday morning around 5 a.m. Police said the men crashed a car into the store and then made off with bags and other merchandise.
The crime was reported by a woman who lives near the “Sunrise” store in Koshigaya City. When they arrived on the scene, police found the shop shutter and glass door smashed, and about 10 items, including a Louis Vuitton bag, missing.
The perpetrators are reported to be a group of four in their 20s and 30s, with one wearing a hooded jacket and mask. After driving their white vehicle into the front of the shop, the four escaped in a black vehicle.

Sounds like those guys who were brawling in Gusto are still trying to win over the girl.
Lucky lady will be getting a new LV bag.

A smash and grab! Commonplace where I come from. But, they usually hit ATM machines or jewelery stores. These clowns only got a coupla grand's worth of complete crap! Losers!

Hey, please do not insult the Jpeople. Even though it is hard for them to pronounce the brand Louis Vuitton, half of the country's population carries those bags. We Gaijins are the one's who do not have a sense of style and carry Jansport. So you should not be surprised that this kind of incident will happen and it is just the beginning of the recession. TV companies are busy minding the statistics and no one seems to bother to do anything about it.

Guess they must have read the "thieves manual" from the other JT article "Ready job opportunities await aspiring crooks".

They changed cars? which means they left one behind? So, the cops are doing exactly what Horatio Kane would do....sit in the koban and wait for them to turn themselves in...

Maybe the cars were more expensive than the things they could get away with.
