The shocking moment a group of men broke into a designer store and stole £1m worth of goods has been caught on camera.

It’s believed three people were involved in the theft, which saw the ultra-lux Hermès brand targeted.

In the clip, they can be seen stood outside a glass door, before attempting to smash their way in.

All of them then make their way to the next door, bashing it with a large, blunt object.

Another clip shows inside the store, where they frantically make their way around, collecting their loot.

Bagging them into sacks, the group quickly make a run for it to avoid getting caught.

On the way out, though, one of them makes a little pit stop to steal a final item.

It’s believed they first broke in at 7:33am and left a mere five minutes later, as reported by Need To Know.

The heist took place on 30 November 2024 at the Ginza Xiaoma shop, a luxury goods resale store located in Hong Kong.

An investigation allegedly found that the trio stole 66 Hermès handbags worth HK0m (£1m).
