Team of thieves targets Lauderhill jewelry store

Glass blanketed the floor as a group of masked men snatched jewelry by the handfuls during the robbery of a Lauderhill store.

Security cameras recorded the heist at Immanuel Jewelry, and police are hoping the public can help identify the men responsible.

Surveillance footage shows a man walking through the front door of the store, 1315 N. State Road 7, about 4 p.m. Saturday and pulling out a hammer from under his shirt.

Before store employees could stop him, the man smashed the display glass and his team of thieves rushed into the store.

As the robbers reached into the display cases, one of the store's employees grabbed a pole and started whacking the men.
