Im Helena Humphrey glad you could join me here in a germany thieves have pulled off a spectacular heist at what it europes most renowned museums police in the east in a german city of todays didnt say that the break in the green falls collection took place in the early hours of monday morning the newt includes priceless early 18th century jewelry the state museum is home to around 4000. 00 objects made of ivory gold silver and. Dressed in Green Vault Museum home to one of europes greatest collections of treasures now its a crime scene after burglars snatch several sets of early 18th century jewelry including diamonds and rubies dressed in police say the thieves entered through a window went straight to a display cabinet which they then smashed before making off with the treasure. To come up we were told but 2 burglars can be seen on the cameras installed in the jewelry im pleased to see. When the Police Arrived no one was the. Emergency services arrived at the scene shortly after 5 am to find smoke billowing out of the vault authorities suspect that the perpetrators could have the electricity to enter the treasure chamber. The collection in dresden was found in the 18th century by august just the strong elector of saxony and later king of poland the jewels here are priceless. Kunitz garnished and i we cant put a value on these items as they are a marketable therefore just simply isnt a value that we can work with there is no financial value we can work with with the jewelry to identifiable to sell in the open market the museum fears that the pieces might be broken up all melted down. The stolen jewel survived the allied bombings in world war 2 were carted off as beauty by the soviet union and were returned here in 1958 now dresden is hoping for their return from the hands of the thieves who vanished without a trace. Or d. W. Correspondent erin tilton is at the crime scene for us tonight in dresden aaron do we know any more about the suspects at this stage. Well over the last several hours weve been able to observe forensics teams which you can actually see right here over my right shoulder going in and out of the building and it seems theyre looking at every possible clue or every possible avenue of investigation to see exactly if they can locate find the identity of the thieves in question and also possibly any clues to the location of the jewels which were stolen now weve been seeing the flash photography and actually were able to hear some type of alarm system go off recently so it seems like theyre really pursuing any possible avenue of investigation so far the police themselves have been rather tight lipped we havent heard about any new major clues coming out from them and it does seem we are still pretty much there we were this morning basically we know that at least 2 men broke into the building they were able to actually enter just through this window over my right hand shoulder they spent several minutes in the building going directly to one of the display cases breaking it up with an ax and by the Police Arrived some 5 minutes later they were already gone actually disappearing without a trace so far that this all seems quite remarkable not least because this collection has a history i mean tell us more about it. Well i mean because the Green Vault Museum contains the combined fortunes and treasures put together by dresden zz royalty assembled over the collect over the course of several 100 years now its an invaluable collection that is really considered one of the greatest in europe specifically to the jewels in question we know that the case that was targeted by the robbers contained 3 sets of jewels put together by go since the start and are strong rather and so far we dont know exactly what elements they stole from took all of the collection or if they just targeted specific pieces but because of the historic nature and of the long cultural significance of the pieces and questions people have speculated that the loss could be in the hundreds of millions if not billions range and iran what might happen now i mean what might be the fate of these precious sorts of facts. Well that really being remains to be seen i mean we there was a similar fest a giant gold coin in berlin a couple of years ago and that was never recovered on the authorities speculate that that was most likely melted down and sold abroad people are speculating here that the the pieces might actually be broken up and then sold for their individual parts still others are speculating that this might have been you know. A targeted attack you have to remember for because of those Security Camera footage that was seen by police it was shown that they were the robbers one specifically for one case and that could indicate that theyre looking for some specific pieces which means that they were actually dealing based on some type of contract or some type of agreement they made or so it was someone but at this point we really dont know its too early to speculate and both police and Police Officials and Museum Officials have been rather tight lipped when it comes to the fate of the jury while on the case for us tonight the w. s are until 10 that in a test an hour and thank you.
