On 1/8/21, at approximately 3:45 p.m., a male subject entered a jewelry store and began looking at diamond earrings and other merchandise. At that time, all employees were assisting other guests at other showcases. Shortly thereafter, a customer observed the subject concealing merchandise into a black backpack. The customer notified the employees. As the employees turned to greet the male subject, he exited immediately. After further inspection of the showcases, items including necklaces, diamond rings and earrings were discovered missing. All showcase keys were accounted for. The method of defeating or compromising the showcase locks or glass is currently unknown. It was also determined that the male was observed visiting the store several times earlier in the day.
The subject was described as a 6′ 3″ Black male. He has a thin build and he was wearing an orange plaid shirt, brown beanie, brown mask, sunglasses and he was carrying a black bookbag.
