Burglars steal $1.5 million worth of jewelry from South Miami home - WPLG Local 10
SOUTH MIAMI, Fla. - A group of experienced burglars recently stole about $1.5 million in jewelry, watches and family heirlooms from a home in Miami-Dade County's city of South Miami while the residents were out of town, police said.
Detectives released surveillance video showing a vandal who was able to shut down the power to the home on July 2 in the area of Southwest 67th Avenue and 68th Terrace in preparation for the burglary. This disabled the home's alarm.
The burglars used a sliding glass door to break into the back of the home. The homeowner is a watch collector, so the burglars broke into a vault and found a $300,000 Daytona Rainbow Rolex and other luxury pieces.
Detectives are asking anyone with information about the burglary to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
