Hairdresser, key service, travel agency and health food store - thieves broke through the walls of several shops on their way to a jeweler in Bremen. They stole jewelry from the showcases at the weekend and fled, the police said on Monday. The investigators put the damage to property alone in a five-digit amount. The amount of the loot has yet to be determined, said the police spokesman.

According to initial findings, the perpetrators first levered open the front door of a hairdresser's shop in a shopping center in the Huchting district. In the salon they broke through the partition to a key service. From there they made their way to a neighboring travel agency and then pushed themselves through the walls of a health food store.
