Jewelry store? How could they not have spent a couple of bucks for a camera? Two skinny guy and a fat guy? They should split up or pick up a villager. One skinny guy? One skinny guy and a fat guy. One skinny guy with and old guy or gal? You/we could go right past them and not know it. |
Seriously, dark skinned in a description is just stupid political correctness. Either say or don't say what their description is, but this is ridiculous. That said, sorry to hear this, we've already done business there, it's a nice jewelry store.

'dark-skinned' could mean anyone, not specifically black.
|
The ski mask is a dead giveaway. However my granddaughter in the height of summer has dark skin. But she wasn’t in TV this week.
|
Maybe on the camera that was the best they could make out?

I thought there was security cameras all around squares> You would think there enough cameras around brownwood to identify the vehicle? Limited number out at 2AM.

That's one problem with having an alarm on a building with windows. They can smash and grab quite a lot before the police arrive, I think ADT advertised an average of 5 to 6 minutes. I haven't paid attention but I wonder if any of the stores in Villages retail spaces have those sliding security doors inside that they would close at night. Maybe they are not allowed as they might give the wrong signal to potential buyers here. If that's the case I would think there will be more of the same happening around town in the future now that they seem to have gotten away with this one. My guess, and it's only based on a feeling that I have is these 3 are not from the area, maybe from Orlando, Tampa, or the coastal areas and that they are experienced.

It seems like. One might consider the possibility that. Perhaps. "Looks like" is an expression, in addition to a statement of visual observation. Blind people use this expression sometimes to express that perhaps some evidence provided about a thing, could lead one to believe a particular possibility. |

I hope I am overreacting. I feel awful for this store owner. If it's the same store I visited last year, it was stocked with beautiful new inventory and irreplaceable estate pieces on consignment that these thieves can only sell for pennies on the dollar. |

Because the Morse family owns the local paper , crime might deter people from moving here.

I don't care what color a person is that has the lack of morals to steal things from someone's legitimate and ethical business. I care that they are caught and stopped. If they have a description tell it and show it and distribute it throughout the State. |

Interestingly, I really don't remember ever seeing police cars Cruise area. And if you get into a jewelry store without the alarm bells ringing and no response I think the insurance company should not pay off
|
Maybe baggy pants?

Never mind. |
I thought fine jewelry stores had large safes where the good stuff was stored during closed hours. I think that’s why the jewelry is displayed on trays that can conveniently be moved. Maybe I’ve seen too many movies.
Loosey goosey security? |
