Thieves have stolen 30 mink coats worth 2.5 million rubles ($77,000) from a shop in southeast Moscow, a police source said on Monday.

"The attackers picked the lock and entered the shop [on Sunday] ...making off with 30 mink coats," the source said.

In November 2008, a group of armed men forced their way into a fur exhibition in southern Moscow and stole 75 fur coats worth 930,000 rubles.
