GRAB & RUN – EUREKA, CA

On 8/23/21, at approximately 6:50 p.m. a male subject approached a jewelry store and browsed every showcase, inquiring on types of metals and diamonds.  The subject approached a showcase containing various charms and pendants, and requested to see a specific charm.  The associate removed the charm from the showcase and maintained possession as the subject viewed it.  The subject requested to hold the charm.

He is approximately 5’11”, and has a thin build. He was last seen wearing baggy clothes. He also has dirty hands.
