The incident was captured all on camera and shows a woman dressed as a shopper with expensive taste, wearing a fur coat and large sunglasses. The owner of S.M. Diamond Center in the mall told FOX 5 that the woman “came in completely alone, and she acted like she wanted to buy something for her boyfriend.”
The owner said she had her eyes on a Rolex watch that was 14-carat gold and silver with a nearly 1-carat diamond on the top. The total cost of the watch was $4,800! She tried on the Rolex and wanted to try on another but was told that she can only see one at a time. Just seconds later she storms off with the expensive watch while the employee tries his best to alert the owner.
“I immediately ran after her,” he said. “There was a white Mitsubishi parked outside. I recognized the guy.”
He explained that the man inside the car had been at the store with a woman at least twice before looking at those particular watches. He believes she wore the disguise when she returned.
“This is our hard-earned money. We work hard for every single penny and we do not have the insurance to cover this kind of loss,” he said. “I wish that these people would understand we have a family to run and we work every day.”
Cops are now searching for the woman and asking the public to share any information that would be helpful for their investigation.
