DRAMATIC VIDEO: A smash-and-grab robbery at a jewelry store in Huntington Beach ended with an employee counterpunch, as store workers fought back against the hammer-swinging thieves.
A chaotic smash-and-grab robbery was captured on surveillance video at a jewelry store in El Monte, prompting a search for the suspects.
One of the suspects is seen in the video reaching into a shattered jewelry case, but a note posted on the store window Sunday evening said,"Fortunately, they were not able to get anything." Although the store employees were successful in their fight, one of the employees was struck with the hammer."They were very fortunate the criminals did not have any weapons beyond what they used to smash that display case," said law enforcement expert Bruce Thomas."If there was a gun involved, this could have turned out very, very different."
