Police catch a group of suspects attempting to tunnel into a jewellery shop in Tooting, south London, according to reports. Officers stop them at about 3:12am on Friday 17 July as they are allegedly trying to break in from an adjacent premises.
The reports describe the shop as being targeted through a nearby massage parlour, suggesting the suspects attempt to use the adjoining space to reach the jewellery business. One outlet also links the suspects to an estimated £700,000 burglary spree, though the precise details of that wider series are not set out in the provided material. The coverage focuses primarily on the arrest moment and the method used, rather than on statements from police or the accused.
Across the available sources, the consistent elements are the time of the stop, the location in Tooting, and the alleged tunnelling approach involving the neighbouring massage parlour.
