Multiple jewelry stores in California, including one in Sunnyvale and another in Santa Monica Promenade, were targeted by thieves in smash and grab robberies. The thieves used tools, hammers, and even a 20-foot U-Haul to break into the stores, stealing items worth thousands of dollars. In one case in west Houston, the thieves found no valuables to take, leaving the store owner to deal with the aftermath.
