Police Search For 3 Suspects In Armed Robbery At Cherry Hill Jewelry Store
CHERRY HILL, N.J. (CBS) - Cherry Hill Police are searching for three suspects involved in an armed robbery that took place at a jewelry store Wednesday night.
The incident happened at about 7:45 p.m. at the Kay Jewelers at Market Place located on Route 70 and Haddonfield Road.
Police say a man and a woman entered the store and began looking at engagement rings. Moments later, a second male entered the store and started looking at jewelry at a nearby counter.
As employees at the store assisted the group, the male half of the couple removed a handgun from his coat pocket and then all three started demanding employees fill a bag with diamond rings, according to authorities.
Police say the employees were then ordered to go into a room in the rear of the building before the suspects left.
Authorities discovered that all three suspects apparently used cell phones throughout the robbery.
