Beverly Hills found itself the target of an apparently organized mass burglary attempt on Nov. 21, but with unexpected results. Despite the use of a sledgehammer to break through windows at Louis Vuitton and Saks Fifth Avenue, the suspects were unable to breach the bullet-proof glass and fled the city empty handed. The incident comes after smash-and-grab burglaries in the Bay Area and one day before a mass burglary at The Grove in Los Angeles.
Around 12:30 a.m. on Nov. 21, the Beverly Hills Police Department responded to two attempted burglaries.
