Moorestown police looking for suspects in Kmart jewelry robberies
On Feb. 28 at 8:29 p.m., Moorestown officers were called to the Kmart store located at 401 Route 38, in response to a report of an armed robbery of jewelry.
Two suspects have been identified. Kmart loss prevention reported that the first suspect used a tool to cut the security cable securing a freestanding jewelry display case to the jewelry counter. The second suspect fled from the store with the display case. When a Kmart loss prevention employee attempted to apprehend the second suspect in the parking lot, the first suspect threatened the Kmart employee with a knife.
The first suspect then told the second suspect to retrieve a gun and shoot the Kmart employee.
The Kmart employee ran to safety. Neither of the suspects displayed a gun.
The suspects fled north on South Lenola Road in a dark blue Chevrolet sedan.
Kmart loss prevention is in the process of identifying the type and value of the stolen jewelry. Anyone with information or who can identify the suspects is asked to contact Moorestown detectives at (856) 914–3092, or detectives@moorestownpd.com.
