2 Suspects Wanted for Grab-and-Run Thefts Across 4 States
They most recently stole from two jewelry stores in Utah, according to the Jewelers’ Security Alliance.
New York—Two men are wanted in connection with at least 10 grab-and-run thefts across four states in June alone.
According to an email alert from the Jewelers’ Security Alliance, at 3 p.m. on June 24, two male suspects carried out a grab-and-run, stealing several pieces of gold jewelry from a store in St. George, Utah.
While police were on the scene investigating, a nearby jewelry store reported a second grab-and-run believed to have been perpetrated by the same two men.
In the second incident, the suspects reportedly fled the scene in a dark-colored Subaru sedan.
JSA said these two suspects, pictured below, are believed to have committed at least nine other grab-and-runs in June in four states: Texas, Nevada, California, and Utah.
The organization reported two of those past cases in JSA Crime Alerts dated June 17 (San Antonio) and June 24 (Burleson, Texas).
The first suspect is described as a black male in his mid-30s, between 6” and 6” 2’ tall with a heavy build and heavily tattooed arms.
The second is described as a black male in his early to mid-30s with tattoos on his neck and both arms.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Zach Bahlmann of the St. George Police Department in Utah at 435-627-4342 or JSA at 212-687-0328 or jsa2@jewelerssecurity.org.
