art objects in the course of the plot. the perpetrators fled in a car a nationwide manhunt is underway. amazing stuff and joining me in the studio to talk about this spectacular ice is my colleague scott roxboro welcome scott i'm senior in a while this was not only spectacular but also an incredibly odd day just robbery how did they pull this off yeah its details are still coming out the police are just begun their really their investigation but from what we know so far from the police told us. they struck early in the morning it was dark partially because of this blackout the this power outage in the streets of the renaults those street lights maybe that was connected there up with police and said specifically on that the robbers went to a side window cut through the bars of the window went through the bulletproof glass went straight to a display case smashed it grabbed the jewels that were there took off the alarm

went off the they were caught on video were caught on video they think there might be other accomplices they got away in a getaway car which they think might have burned out 15 minutes later they found a car which doors all open smelling of gasoline had been burnt out they soon it might be the getaway car but there's a lot of i mean it's sounds like a like a movie but there are a lot of questions to loke we still don't know a lot of the details so and how much did they actually get this is the big question what's the value of the value is very difficult to calculate in this in this case because the the pieces there are something like 4000 some pieces in the museum and and that's really of incalculable value what they actually got were 3 sets of jewels of belonged to august strong logs the 2nd who created the original collection in the early 18th century and these would have been his was personal bling really it would have been his is necklaces is his cufflinks diamonds and so forth that he would wear what i'm so yes you know completely completely and at the
6:49 pm
time he was in sort of a jewel race with the sun king louis the 14th in france trying to. do each other with more stations more impressive jewelry so so the actual material value i guess could be calculated but they've refused to do that. because they said the this collection really is irreplaceable and its cultural value its historical value is immeasurable to the next question because obviously this isn't the kind of stuff it's too well known you can't just walk into a pawn shop and get rid of it what can the burglars do with it now well it's will be interesting to see what happens now because this is you said this really can't be sold on the open market there's no reputable jeweler who would who would who would buy it people even thieves probably could even buy this because they couldn't pass on to their children that would somehow turn up. they think either the thieves will don't know this and will try and sell it and maybe even get caught or in the worst case scenario they'll break it down for pieces and sell it off hopefully they're watching the news now this is the kind of thing we as we said we think only
6:50 pm
happens in the movies that there's actually been quite a lot of art heist in recent years tell us about some of the yeah i mean even here in berlin 2 years ago in the boat a museum there was a huge. heist of all look seemingly quite similar to this where thieves broke in and stole a 100 kilogram heavy gold coins from other countries really enjoy the police huge big maple leaf we've coined it was stolen and it was again mazing smash and grab operation a group of criminals they were caught on c.c.t.v. cameras broke in the 2nd floor window of the museum stole the coin got away the police actually found the people who are responsible arrested them but the coin is gone we assume it's been melted down and saxon premier michael crichton are made a dramatic statement this morning saying that the thieves have robbed the people of saxony of their cultural heritage just how big
6:51 pm
a blow is this for germany it's really substantial i mean the only comparison i really could make would be what would happen if the crown jewels were stolen in london you know the impact that would have on the cultural and historical impact that would have on britain it's a similar thing here this isn't. believe a bull a treasure trove of german history the actual material value is not important here it's really the the the cultural value the historical value that's why you could hear it in the voice the premier of sax the today he is just incredibly distraught people to saks you know you have been robbed yes we have been robbed the people of saks our culture has been taken from us and let's hope that the police will be able to recover these these these certainly a story that well we'll have to keep our eyes on thank you very much for bringing us all those details. like monk in norway unbelievable that they're actually happening today yes here it is hiding stuff let's hope it gets solved thanks scott ross perot. well now to a living treasure and a woman who is the personification of rock
