$750,000.00 Worth of Jewels Stolen in Broad Daylight
Armed with knives and ski masks on, three men wait on the block by the LBJ Freeway, close to the Dallas North Tollway. Wednesday afternoon, around 3:00 p.m. a broker begins to make his way to his car with $750,000 worth of jewels in his suitcase, when seeing his car blocked by another car and three thieves standing in front of it.
The broker impulsively begins to run in the opposite direction while the thieves chase him. Once they get the suitcase, they slice his tires to be sure the broker doesnt come after them.
Luckily the broker was not injured or hurt.
Police said that close to where the diamonds have been stolen is a huge building filled with diamonds and jewelry brokers.
This incident is very much similar to a diamond theft that happened a month earlier. A Garland jeweler left his car parked outside the diamond building. Loaded in the trunk of the car was $600,000 worth of diamonds and pearls. When the jeweler returned an hour later the car was gone and was found by police the next morning by an apartment close by.
