Four men wearing masks broke through the doors.
A jeweler who was in 2011 the victim of a $15 million heist has been hit by thieves again.
Four men wearing masks stole jewelry from Provident Jewelry in Jupiter, FL, before daybreak on Wednesday, the Palm Beach Post reports. They used tools — sledgehammers or axes — to break through the doors, and then they broke into 15 jewelry cases.
Store owner Rob Samuels is still determining the value of the merchandise that was taken, according to the newspaper.
When the store was victimized in 2011, thieves made off with $15 million in jewelry. A judge sentenced Pedro Luis “El Loco” Enriquez to 15 years behind bars for his role in the burglary.

Family Legacy, New Chapter: How Wilkerson Turns 89 Years of History Into Future Success
After 89 years of serving the Albany community, Harold Finkle Your Jeweler faced a pivotal decision. For third-generation owner Justin Finkle, the demanding hours of running a small business were taking precious time away from his young family. "After 23 years, I decided this was the time for me," Finkle explains. But closing a business with nearly nine decades of inventory and customer relationships isn't something easily managed alone.
Wilkerson's comprehensive approach transformed this challenging transition into a remarkable success story. Their strategic planning handled everything from advertising and social media to inventory management and staffing — elements that would overwhelm most jewelers attempting to navigate a closing sale independently.
The results speak volumes. "Wilkerson gave us three different tiers of potential goals," Finkle notes. "We've reached that third tier, that highest goal already, and we still have two weeks left of the sale." The partnership didn't just meet financial objectives—it exceeded them ahead of schedule.
