East Bay police are investigating two brazen burglaries in two days and about four miles apart.
OAKLAND -- Surveillance footage obtained by KPIX showed thieves on Thursday using a van to rip out the front door and drag a safe out of Grand Jewelry Repair on Grand Avenue, near Lake Merritt in Oakland. That theft happened at around 3:45 a.m. Footage showed five burglars in two vehicles.The store owner's son, Christopher Tran, said the thieves first pried a door open with a crowbar. Then, they attached a rope to the metal gate and pulled it off with a van.
But now, I don't know if we're going to come back,' Mr. Tran said.'Now, he's thinking about retirement. The only thing that sucks is it's more like a forced retirement because he doesn't feel safe,' said the younger Tran.It's the second costly burglary in three years at Grand Jewelry Repair. Tran, an immigrant who escaped the war in Vietnam, said they can't seem to escape the crime in Oakland.
