Authorities are investigating the theft of four luxury cars stolen from a dealership in Silver Spring.

Officers responded to the Universal Auto Group on Distribution Circle just after 1:45 a.m. Monday where they say someone smashed the window to the business and stole several sets of car keys.

Montgomery County police say the thieves then stole a 2017 White Merz Benz GLS, a 2019 Gold Merz Benz GLC, a 2019 White Merz Benz S450, and a 2019 White BMW X3.

The dealership is adding additional security measures after the crooks were caught on camera stealing the cars.

FOX 5 spoke to a worker who was doing some security updates at the Universal Auto Group dealership Monday afternoon.

"This is some window protection, so if anybody tries to break into the window they won't be able to get in," Armando Seragay said. 

No injuries were reported in the robbery and no suspects are in custody at this time.

This is a developing story. Check back with FOX 5 for updates.
