An audacious theft of jewelry has taken place in Japan, sparking a nationwide manhunt. A group of unidentified individuals made off with varying pieces of precious jewelry, the number and identity of the perpetrators remain unclear at the moment. There were no reported injuries in the daring daylight theft. The police have launched an investigation, asking the public for any assistance in identifying and apprehending these daring bandits.

Such a daring theft is relatively rare in Japan, a country with one of the lowest crime rates globally. The incident has gained significant public attention, arousing concern over public safety and social order. The Japanese public is keenly interested in the progress of the investigation, displaying trust in their police force to swiftly apprehend and bring these culprits to justice.

In comparison to the US or EU, Japan has a significantly lower crime rate including thefts.
