The Loro Piana store on Sloane Street, London, which was hit for nearly £385,000 worth of goods — more than 105 items — in a single raid on 16 December 2025.

Max Tyson, 26, once took just £1,800 for stolen designer goods worth more than £30,000, less than six pence in the pound. He and fellow ringleader Ryan Brough, 34, each got six years and five months at Inner London Crown Court after admitting conspiracy to commit burglary; the five Islington men shared 14 years and 10 months.

Ringleaders Max Tyson and Ryan Brough were held on 23 January, the very day of their final raid.

DNA tied Max Tyson to one scene; a ramming vehicle was insured in gang member Olivier Ndayizeie's name.

Flying Squad's Detective Constable Will Wigzell vowed to pursue smash-and-grab robbers in London 'wherever they are'.
