Police said least two of the bandits were men dressed as women, at times spoke a foreign language and knew the Harry Winston employees’ names. Interesting…. The official was not authorized to be publicly named according to agency policy.

A spokeswoman for the U.S.-based chain of Harry Winston has not made a statement.

This jewelry robbery makes it the largest jewelry theft in Paris ever, reported police.
