Heist - verb. To take unlawfully, esp. in a robbery or holdup; steal: to heist a million dollars' worth of jewels.

I came across this video footage from CNN.com of an accidental capture of a jewelry heist done in London in the middle of the day! A reporter was doing her story of a book at a book store just a couple shops down from a jewelry store, she was in the middle of reporting when two sport bikes began revving their engines. It was discovered later the engines were to mask the sound of a sledgehammer breaking the shops windows. The cameras kept rolling and captured the, anti-climactic (if you ask me), get-away. But, get-away they did because last I heard police are still searching for the jewel thieves. Amazing.
