Police are appealing to members of the public concerning three people who tied up the occupants of a home in Saint-Gilles and held them at gunpoint before stealing a Rolex watch, jewellery and money.
The aggravated burglary took place at around 01:40 on Sunday 6 September on Rue du Mont Blanc, federal police said in an appeal issued at the request of the Brussels Public Prosecutor's Office.
Three individuals entered the property and threatened its occupants with a gun before overpowering and tying them up. They then searched the home and fled with a Rolex watch, jewellery and an unknown amount of cash.
