And by saying takeover robbery, they demanded everybody to get on the ground. They forced people who were present, including staff members, to do their will. And in doing so, they were able to take over, break the glass, take away the stuff that they wanted to take.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The investigation was underway, according to the January 5 NBC report.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Video footage <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2vQ1F4nVW34\">showed<\/a> several individuals, wielding large hammers, breaking the glass cases.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Eric Orozco\u2019s shop, Heart of Gold, was also targeted, and he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-10387569\/Robbers-armed-hammers-steal-jewelry-San-Jose-shops-latest-California-smash-grab.html\">said<\/a> he lost between $50,000 and $100,000 of merchandise, according to the <em>Daily Mail<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The businessman has since joined Californians who want stricter punishment for criminals in the state.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u201cI talked to police and this is where I learned they\u2019re too soft,\u201d Orozco told the outlet.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u201cThe police told me, \u2018we kind of have to let the thieves keep stealing because once they get to court, if there hasn\u2019t been enough stealing or damage, they\u2019re going to get too short of a sentence and they\u2019re going to be out and stealing again,&#8217;\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">\u201cThat was just mind blowing.
