While employees were distracted and assisting several other customers, the suspect grabbed a display case containing a variety of rings and watches at the store located at 271 Third Avenue. He threw the display case into the bed of a waiting pick-up truck, jumped into the driver’s seat and drove off. Now in this tight-knight community of Chula Vista, everyone has their eyes peeled.
