An American couple in Nice trusted their GPS this Monday, December 19, 2024. They found themselves in the city of Moulins and clearly did not have a good time.
They were looking for a post office to drop off a package and trusted their GPS. A couple of Americans driving a yellow Ferrari F8 were directed to the Moulins district of Nice, near Place des Amaryllis, reports Le Figaro.
Sac Hermès, 5 000 dollars…
The motorist stopped to drop off his wife and park further away. In about a minute, three individuals disembarked, opening the passenger side door. The thugs took the passenger’s Hermès bag which contained $5,000 in cash as well as her personal effects.
“Dragged on the sidewalk”
They then attacked the driver and “dragged on the sidewalk while banging it”according to a police source cited by Le Figaro. The man didn’t give up. The criminals also stole a pair of sunglasses worth €2,000 and a Louis Vuitton bag containing $8,000 and €3,000 in cash.
Open investigation
The gang did not attack the couple’s Ferrari, estimated at more than 150,000 euros, fleeing, leaving the victim stunned on the sidewalk.
A complaint was filed and an investigation opened by the Nice public prosecutor’s office. The investigations were entrusted to the local Judicial Police Service.
