cambriolage -- a professional job

The bijouterie a eu un cambriolage…a robbery…in the middle of the night. Crooks in terrorist black ski masks pulled up, pushed a hole in the grill and emptied the window of diamonds, rubies and emeralds. Looking up they saw Babette watching from her apartment window. She had wakened by the noise of the grill snapping. They brandished a gun at her. She had already called the police, who came fast, but not fast enough to stop the get-away. Today the store is closed as Nathalie, the owner cleans up the mess, fills out forms, and tries to get on with her work.
