The Arlington Heights Police Department is investigating two suspicious incidents at the Persin & Robin Jewelers on Friday July 6, 2013 at 3:00 p.m. and Tuesday July 10, 2013 at 5:00 p.m.
On Friday July 6, 2013, the three men in the pictures below came into the store and went to the Rolex watch case and asked the price of the most expensive watch. The three men left the store with no further contact.
On Tuesday July 10, 2013, the three men in the bottom pictures came into the store and appeared to case the business. The man in the red “FLY” shirt was on the phone the entire time, while in the store. The men left the store and the employee locked the front door to close the business for the day. The man in picture (Subject #6) came back to the front door and tried to enter the business, but the door was locked.
The owners of the business reported Rolex watch dealers are being targeted for smash and grab robberies.
Should any police agency or citizen have any information about these men or a similar suspicious incident, please contact Det. Russ Mandel at 847-368-5362 or [email protected].
