Los Angeles Herald Examiner – early edition: May 18, 1985 Beverly Hills, California
Three armed men robbed exclusive Peter DeMeo Jewelers yesterday, walking off with an estimated 20 million dollars in jewelry. The brazen 5pm heist is the largest robbery on record for Beverly Hills.
Police are reviewing videotape and interviewing staff in an effort to identify the thieves. No one was hurt during the robbery.
Management says the store will remain closed until a full inventory is completed.
