San Diego prosecutors say a five-person crew spent nearly a year hunting FedEx drivers at gunpoint, snatching more than $667,000 in Louis Vuitton merchandise in robberies that rattled delivery routes across the county from July 2024 through June 2025. The alleged haul included 25 boxes taken during a scheduled drop-off at Fashion Valley, along with several carjackings of delivery trucks while drivers stopped to fuel up. Authorities say none of the stolen designer goods have turned up.
