Royan: the house of the press robbed in broad daylight

By SD Two individuals took two minutes to steal several items and the contents of a handbag. Surveillance cameras allowed the police to observe their modus operandi

“Other merchants in Royan must be vigilant. Obviously the two people who robbed us are not at their first attempt. The manager of the Maison de la presse in Royan, Jennifer Delahaye, is sounding the alarm. It was she who was busy, behind the cash desk, Tuesday, December 14 at the end of the day, around 5:20 p.m., when two individuals entered. On the video of the surveillance cameras, we cannot distinguish whether they are two women or two men dressed as women. In any event, they are equipped with masks, hats and gloves so as not to be easily identifiable.

In the reserve too

“They stole things from the store and went to the reserve, at the back, where they also took something,” says the manager who, unfortunately, had left her bag there. “They saw that there was a camera. They kicked it and stole the contents of the bag. »

Nobody saw anything. Neither the staff nor the customers. A complaint was filed at the police station. “I blame myself because their attire should have given me a hint,” laments Jennifer Delahaye.
