Atlanta bandits make off with $14K worth of jewelry, police say

ATLANTA - Atlanta police have posted images of a duo they say robbed a jewelry kiosk of $14,000 worth of merchandise at Greenbriar Mall in early October.

Newly released surveillance video showed two men at the Gold and Diamond Castle Kiosk at around 6:30 p.m. on Oct. 1. A man in a gray hoodie appeared to be waiting for the worker to approach him. As soon as she gets close, the man attempted to snatch an item out of her hands.

The employee held on for a few seconds, but the man in the gray hoodie ultimately got away with the item as a second man in a black hoodie ran off with him.
