Armed Robbery at Geissens' Villa in Saint-Tropez: Ongoing Investigation
The French police are making progress in their investigation into the armed robbery at the luxury residence of the Geissens in Saint-Tropez, which occurred one and a half months ago. The incident has caused injury to both Carmen and Robert Geiss, with Carmen suffering a cut on her neck and Robert receiving a kick to the ribs[3].
Valuables worth around 200,000 euros were stolen during the robbery, but the exact nature and value of the stolen goods have not been disclosed[1]. The case has drawn significant attention due to the brutality and the high-profile victims involved[2].
Deputy Prosecutor of Draguignan, Laurence Barriquand, stated that the investigation is going well and several leads have been confirmed[6]. The Geissens have since increased the security of their residence with an alarm system, new video surveillance, and a three-meter-high fence with barbed wire[7].
Robert Geiss, a successful businessman who once owned a sportswear label, and Carmen, a model and fitness trainer, have been giving viewers a glimpse into their jet-set lifestyle since 2011 with their TV show "Die Geissens - eine schrecklich glamouröse Familie"[10]. Since the robbery, they have temporarily stayed in Monaco and have expressed their desire to beef up security to prevent a similar incident from happening again[8].
Robert Geiss has shared footage from surveillance cameras on Instagram, showing the robbery at their residence[9]. He has referred to the perpetrators as "idiots" and Carmen as "scumbags." Despite the ongoing ordeal, Robert Geiss has expressed that the new security measures have made them feel safe and protected[11].
As the investigation continues, further reliable updates will likely come from official police reports or credible news outlets. The public awaits official confirmation of any arrests or breakthroughs in the case.
