Hong Kong police say they are hunting a girl between ages 12 and 14 years old over the theft of a diamond necklace worth more than $4.6 million (N879m) from a luxury jewelry store.
According to the police, the youngster helped carry out the audacious theft with two women and a man, all aged between 30 and 40 years.
The necklace was 100-carat gold embedded with more than 30 diamonds, the South China Morning Post (SCMP) said, and police confirmed it was $4.6 million (NN879m).
The three adults posed as big spenders and demanded employees show them jewelry in an apparent move to divert staff attention while the young girl managed to steal a key from a drawer to open a cabinet.
