Ahmed Chaieb had already been burgled twice that summer, so when intruders returned to his home in Bièvres, Essonne, he had moved his Lamborghini Urus out of harm’s way.

At about 5 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 30, the home’s video-surveillance system detected several people arriving in a utility vehicle and allegedly entering the property. Chaieb, the chief executive of Cash Converters Europe, immediately alerted the anti-crime brigade.

Officers reportedly arrived within minutes. Three men fled, but police arrested one of them in the garden, according to sources cited in the report. The other two escaped in the utility vehicle, prompting a pursuit through the streets of Essonne as additional patrols joined the operation.
