Arlington Heights police responded about 6:32 PM Sunday to a report of a retail theft suspect that fled with a diamond ring at Kohl’s, 800 West Dundee Road Arlington Heights, IL. Police received a report that an offender entered the store and asked about jewelry at the jewelry, examined some jewelry, and ran off with a diamond ring.
The offender spoke with the clerk at the jewelry counter and asked to see certified diamond rings. He then asked to view the most expensive ring. The clerk removed a 14-karat white gold mounting ring, weighing 1.4 dwt, also described as stamped 14 K with a logo containing one natural diamond. The ring was reported to have a value of about $9,000.
