NORTH HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (KTLA) -- An investigation is under way after an international jeweler was beaten and robbed of $2 million worth of diamonds in North Hollywood.
The jewelry salesman, said to be visiting from Israel, was at a friend's house in the 12900 block of Hatteras Street Thursday night and was apparently carrying $2 million worth of uninsured diamonds in a bag.
As the jeweler drove away around 10 p.m., he was rear-ended and then boxed-in by two other vehicles on the corner of Bellaire Avenue and Burbank Boulevard, according to North Hollywood Police Department detectives.
