Leipzig (dpa / sn) - Thieves have perpetrated a spectacular break-in at a Leipzig jeweler.

The crooks had crashed into the security roller door in a car on Tuesday night and were able to get inside, the police said.

There, the thieves broke into the showcases, stole jewelry at an as yet unknown height and fled with another car.

A manhunt was initially unsuccessful.

The «Bild» newspaper had previously reported.

The alarm was received by the police at 3.55 a.m.

Almost at the same time, residents reported who had noticed that there was a rampage in the interior of the jeweler.

The car that the perpetrators had used to break in had previously been stolen in Leipzig.

The owner had not noticed this until the arrival of the police.

The vehicle is now being examined for traces.

The police asked witnesses to report.
