Burglars attempted to break into one of central London’s most upmarket auction houses that flogs jewellery and art, the police told Metro.
The suspected aggravated burglary at Phillips on Berkeley Square, Mayfair, happened in the early hours this morning.
Photographs show one of the gallery’s glass doors shattered and lying on the pavement, with a blue Mercedes parked just outside.
The vehicle has visible dents, with one of the headlights damaged.
Police have been unable to confirm if anything was stolen.
A witness said they saw the gallery had been taped off, with forensics teams on the scene.
