Tom Cruise's bags worth thousands of euros were stolen in England, where the American star is filming the seventh part of the "Mission: Impossible" films, according to what the newspaper "The Sun" revealed.

The luggage was inside his security guard's car.

It was robbed on Monday night, Tuesday, in front of a hotel in Birmingham where he stayed, according to the tabloid newspaper.

"We received a report of the theft of a BMW X7+ on Church Street in Birmingham in the early hours of Tuesday morning, August 24," a West Midlands Police spokesman said, without confirming the identity of the vehicle's owner.

The car was found shortly after, according to the police spokesman, who explained that "the investigation is still ongoing, especially based on the surveillance camera recordings in the area where the car was parked."

But "everything that was inside the car has disappeared," according to a source in the newspaper "The Sun", referring to "some luggage and collectibles" belonging to the 59-year-old actor.

The newspaper revealed that the thieves erased and reproduced the signal sent from the working key without contact in this luxury car, two minutes from a police station.

And "The Sun" reported that "this trick, which rises to the level of the scenarios of the (Mission Impossible) films, allowed the gang to escape by car in front of the eyes of the security staff."

Tom Cruise, who is known to perform most of the stunts in his films, caused a stir this week in the Midlands (Northern England).

He was seen filming several scenes from Part VII of the "Mission Impossible" series, in which he plays the role of intelligence agent Ethan Hunt.
