Looks like they only robbed the people in there... no english subtitles.

They should ban guns and this sort of thing would not happen.

Jewlery is hard to fence nowadays

Most rings have a micro stamp serial number that is just as traceable as a licsence plate.

Not if it's melted.

Your right .......i shoould have been more clear

I ment to say the diamonds are traceable

Your average theif isnt melting jewlery.... that is very labour intensive and cuts into fencing profits.

as usual, it becomes a cat-and-mouse game. you would need a scope to see the engraving, and some faceting equipment to grind it away. and possibly a laser to re-write a new ID on the stone.
