On June 19, 2015, at approximately 8:54 pm, a Felony Theft occurred at the Zales Jewelry Store located in the Killeen Mall.
The suspect entered the store wanting to see bridal rings so the associate showed him a 4 CT TW bridal ring. The subject then asked to see another piece so the associate placed the first item back into the showcase and pulled out a second piece. The subject then stated that he wanted to see both pieces to compare side-by-side. The associate pulled the first piece out of the case. At this time, the suspect grabbed the merchandise from her hand and ran out of the store taking the two bridal rings valued at more than $13,000.
