Police: Fashion Valley Chanel store robbed by smash-and-grab suspects twice in 2 weeks

Smash-and-grab shoplifters have targeted San Diego’s Fashion Valley Mall twice in the past two weeks. The groups of alleged thieves stole thousands of dollars in handbags from Chanel.

We spoke with a woman who witnessed one of the mob-style smash and grabs and says the thing that surprised her most, is that she never saw the police come after it happened.

Cindy was at the Nordstrom Café at Fashion Valley Mall on November 3 having coffee when she saw several people walk into the Chanel Boutique inside Nordstrom.

“All were wearing the black face mask. I noticed they had blue gloves on. They had hoodies on with the hoodie up of course and they were walking briskly in the store. It was very surreal because you see it on the internet, you see it happening in other cities and you think, oh my gosh, this is actually happening here in front of me?," Cindy said.
