Dramatic jewel heists don’t just take place in movies. The most unbelievable capers can also occur offscreen, and this week, thieves in Dresden, Germany, proved that to be true.
Before 5:00 AM this morning, two thieves entered Dresden’s Royal Palace via a grilled window, smashed a display cabinet, and stole three sets of 18th-century jewelry from the Grüne Gewölbe (Green Vault). Although officers were on the scene within minutes, the thieves escaped and are still at large.
