Police said two men entered the Perillo Automotive luxury car dealer in the Gold Coast, smashed a display case, and stole five watches worth $1 million.
A 38-year-old man from Hammond, Indiana, has been charged with stealing $1 million worth of luxury watches inPolice Supt. David Brown said Carlos Valiant has been charged with felony counts of theft and burglary, after he was identified as one of the two men who robbed the Perillo Automotive luxury car dealership on Dec. 11. The dealership sells Bentley, Rolls Royce, Maserati, and other luxury car brands, as well as high-end watches and jewelry.
Chief of Detectives Brendan Deenihan said one of the two robbers had a weapon, likely mace, and some people inside the store had concealed carry licenses, and when they pulled out their guns, the robbers fled the store. Valiant ran off while the second suspect got into a car that sped off. The robbery prompted an angry response from the dealership’s owner, Joe Perillo, who called on Mayor Lori Lightfoot and Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx to do more about the recent rise in smash-and-grab style robberies at high-end stores.
