French police are searching for 100 first-class passengers who were robbed on a train in France. A gang of men disguised as women using wigs are responsible for the thefts.

Very fast
The perpetrators, aged between 40 and 50, traded mainly near Nice and Marseille. “They knew very well what they were doing and they were fast,” said David Bruger, the local police chief in Marseille. Watchman. “They even bought valid tickets for the train.” Train tickets show success on different routes: from Paris to Nice, from Paris to Marseille, and from Lyon to Geneva.
In addition, it can be noted that one of the thieves, with the help of wigs and dresses, always disguises himself as a woman. Then he sits next to the victim to distract them. The other two men can easily take wallets, bags and other valuables. If that was successful, they got off at the next stop.
