“Crime News At MJP”
Newark, New Jersey — Four individuals are wanted by the Newark police for a daring smash-and-grab heist that occurred during the day at a jewelry store in the area. The community and law enforcement are on high alert following yesterday afternoon’s high-profile robbery.
This famous Broad Street business, “Gold & Gems Jewelry,” was the victim of a heist at 2:00 in the afternoon. The store was attacked by four people at once, according to surveillance camera footage and eyewitness accounts. They made a hasty getaway after stealing an undetermined amount of expensive jewelry and smashing display cases with hammers.
The perpetrators were caught on camera by the surveillance system. Their disguises, including masks and gloves, made them difficult to identify. The suspects quickly enter the business armed with hammers and big bags, smash glass displays, and steal jewelry, as shown in the clip. They fled the scene of the crime in a black automobile that was parked close by.
In their pursuit of justice, detectives from the Newark Police Department (NPD) are not wasting any time. To gather leads, the police department has made the CCTV film public. The video has gone viral on social media, and the authorities are asking anyone who may have information to contact them.
