Burglars used an angle grinder to break into a jeweller’s in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, according to an article published on 31 March 2026 by Thecomet. The use of cutting equipment such as angle grinders has become a common tactic among burglars targeting retail jewellery stores, as the tools allow rapid entry through security shutters and display cases.
Business owners operating jewellery shops should consider reinforced security measures, including CCTV monitoring, alarm systems connected to professional response services, and robust physical barriers to slow entry attempts. Regular security audits and staff training on breach protocols are equally important preventative steps.
