Trio fled empty handed from Saghana Jewellers in Ealing Road
The hunt is on to find three men who tried to carry out a smash and grab robbery at jewellers in Wembley.
The trio fled empty handed after failing to smash their way into Saghana Jewellers in Ealing Road, last week.
They sped off in a black BMW 1 Series convertible which was later found dumped in Copland Mews, just minutes away from the scene.
Detectives from the Met’s Flying Squad who are investigating the incident last Wednesday at around 4.20pm are linking it to an identical robbery which took place two days earlier in Southall, west London.
Two men wearing dark clothing and balaclavas pulled up outside Goldbox jewellers on South Road in a black BMW 1 Series convertible at around 5pm.
They smashed the shop’s windows grabbing a selection of gold necklace and earring sets worth around £6,000 from the display.

“Were you nearby when either incident took place? Did you see the getaway car or the person waiting inside?
“If you have any information no matter how small please come forward and help us to catch those responsible.”
