Was Jewelry Theft in Gratkorn a Coup by the Battering Ram Gang?

Unknown perpetrators forced open the entrance door of a watch and jewelry store in Gratkorn, north of Graz, with a vehicle early Monday morning and seized a number of valuables. The white van was found shortly after north of Gratkorn, the State Police Directorate of Styria reported. The search for the burglars was still ongoing on Monday afternoon.

Thieves Forced Open Jewelry Store Door with Van

Presumably four perpetrators drove the van in reverse against the store's entrance door around 4:00 AM. They then stole an as yet unknown number of jewelry items and fled with the getaway vehicle. The crew of a police helicopter discovered the van with a fake Dutch license plate a few kilometers north of the crime scene. The securing and evaluation of evidence is ongoing, it was reported.
