DEVELOPING AT TEN... THE OWNER
OF CARTER JEWELERS SAYS A MAN
STOLE SIX-THOUSAND-
DOLLARS-WORTH OF
RINGS FROM THE STORE.
AND IT MIGHT NOT BE HIS FIRST
SCAM. 16 WAPT'S TAMMY ESTWICK
JOINS US LIVE FROM THE NEWSROOM
WITH THE LATEST.
TAMMY?
A TWIST IN THIS STORY TONIGHT
... WE'VE TAKEN SEVERAL CALLS IN
OUR
NEWSROOM TODAY FROM PEOPLE
SAYING
THE SAME MAN HAS TRIED TO HIT
THEIR
BUSINESSES FOR MONEY.
THE THEFT AT CARTERS JEWELERS
HAPPENED
MONDAY ON STATE STREET. IN THE
VIDEO---YOU SEE A MAN WALK-IN
AND
HEAD-OVER TO THE COUNTER. AFTER
TRYING ON SEVERAL-RINGS----HE
ONLY HANDS ONE- BACK. THEN
TELLS THE SALES LADY HE'S GOING
TO
HIS TRUCK TO GET SOMETHING. HE
RUSHES OUT OF THE STORE JUMPS
INTO
HIS TRUCK AND TAKES OFF . THAT'S
WHEN THE EMPLOYEE REALIZED
SEVERAL RINGS ----GONE...
HE WAS WELL DRESSED AND I THINK
WELL SPOKEN AND HE
SEEMED TO KNOW WHAT HE WANTED
AND HE LOOKED LIKE SOMEBODY
HAS A JOB AND A GIRLFRIEND AND
SO THE LADY THAT WAITED ON HIM
WAS NOT SUSPICIOUS OF HIM.
THE MAN WAS ALSO WEARING A WHITE
GNC
SHIRT. BUT THEY'RE NOT SURE IF
HE WORKS THERE OR SOMEHOW GOT
HIS
HANDS ON A SHIRT.
THE OWNER SAYS HE DID NOT THINK
THIS
WAS AN ACCIDENT CONSIDERING THE
MAN TOOK OFF QUICKLY FROM THE
PARKING LOT.
LIVE IN THE NEWSROOM, TAMMY
ESTWICK 16 WAPT NEWS.

WAS HE DRIVING?
