Armed thieves used a sledgehammer to smash open display cases in a brazen jewellery robbery in broad daylight.
Guests at an international art fair in the Dutch city of Maastricht were left terrified after the gun -wielding robbers smashed their way through the glass cases and made off with the jewellery.
Dramatic footage shows the moment a man wearing a blazer and cap uses the sledgehammer to smash open the display cases. The robbery took place this morning, around 11:30am local time at the TEFAF fair.
