Nope, this $500,000 Park Avenue jewelry store heist wasn't part of a movie. But it was caught on camera.
No injuries were reported, but the NYPD says the thieves made off with at least a half-million-dollars worth of high-end jewelryA wild smash-and-grab at a Park Avenue jeweler earned a thieving trio more than $500,000 worth of high-end goods over the weekend, according to police -- and the straight-out-of-a-movie scene was captured on surveillance cameras.
Newly released video of the 3:30 a.m. Saturday heist at Cellini Jewelers shows the dramatic entry, with the trio using sledgehammers to blast through the door, shattering glass everywhere, and forcing their way into the store. A full inventory of the stolen items is pending, but police say the estimated value is more than $500,000.
Cops say the robbers ran off afterward. No injuries were reported and no other details were available early Monday.
