Suspect Nabbed In Wave Of Jewelry Store Thefts Across PA, NJ, DE February 15, 2021 (2 comments)
Dover, DE—Michael Larbi, 22, of Dover, DE was taken into custody last week in connection with a series of jewelry store robberies in southeastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. In case anyone needed proof that cooperation leads to apprehension, the Jewelers’ Security Alliance has been tracking these events and a TV news report from Philadelphia’s NBC10 affiliate says that while investigating one of the robberies, police in Evesham Township, NJ determined that similar robberies had occurred at five other jurisdictions in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, then subsequently learned of three similar thefts in Maryland--with evidence from one of those thefts leading to a break in the cases in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
