Thieves Drive Truck Through Storefront in Fairfax District Burglary

LOS ANGELES, Calif. — A business in Los Angeles’ Fairfax District was targeted by burglars who drove a truck through the storefront in the early hours of Tuesday, stealing merchandise before fleeing on foot.

Incident Details

According to Los Angeles Police Department Officer Madison, officers responded around 3:50 a.m. to reports of a vehicle crashing into a building near Melrose and Martel avenues. A black four-door truck was deliberately driven into the storefront before two suspects entered the store and took an unknown amount of merchandise.

The suspects fled on foot prior to police arrival. A burglary report was filed, but no further details have been released.

Targeted Business

The store appears to be Relevance, a retailer specializing in luxury goods. The business recently celebrated its grand opening just one month ago, according to its social media.
