ARMED ROBBERY – MIAMI, FL

On 10/12/17, at approximately 1:16 p.m., a suspect told a jewelry store associate that he was looking for a birthday gift for his mother. He stated that she likes tennis bracelets. After being presented with bracelets and discussing pricing, the suspect lost interest in the bracelets. The suspect then requested to look at a pendant.
