00:00These jewelry thieves pulled off a $20 million heist, and they're still at large.
00:04So it really is something like out of a movie.
00:07Check out this video.
00:07It happened in a local jewelry store in downtown L.A. Sunday night.
00:11The thieves broke into a vacant property next door, drilled through a wall to reach the jewelry store.
00:17No alarms went off.
00:19That gave them hours to empty the display cases and crack the safe.
00:24We're in the gold business, and over the years, my father's been here 20 years,
00:27and since he started, the gold has gone up 10x.
00:31And then also in the past few months, we've been doing social media.
00:35So our business has grown a lot in the past few months, and then they took it all right at our peak.
00:42Now the owner says thieves used the same method in a previous robbery.
00:48The family that owns the store does not have insurance for the stolen jewelry,
00:52but they are offering $100,000 for any information about.
