A smash and grab gang have raided top end jewellers Tiffany in west London.

A transit van was used to smash into the store and was left at the scene before moped raiders snatched items at the Knightsbridge jeweller’s.

The raid happened just before 3am this morning.

The raiders fled the scene with a large number of precious jewels on mopeds just before 3am.

Officers can be seen inside the shop, which will remain closed for the rest of the day.

Police took photos of at least two sets of footprints left on the pavement among the shattered glass, which appear to have tread patterns from Nike Air Force and Air Max 97 trainers.

A sign on the window said: “Tiffany & Co Sloane Square will remain closed today due to unforeseen events.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
