3/25/13 - A local diamond store has been burglarized again and tens of thousands of dollars in jewelry was stolen. Pendants, rings, earrings and precious stones valued at approximately $230,000 were stolen during the March 9th incident at The Ultra Diamond Store, located in the Tanger Outlet Center in Howell Township. Michigan State Police at the Brighton Post and a Sheriffâs Department Deputy responded to a burglary alarm that sounded at around midnight. Police found the front door of the business broken out and discovered that numerous glass display cases had been broken into but no suspects were located. The most recent incident appears to be similar to one that occurred last December at the same store in which police found the front window broken in, display cases smashed, and about $80,000 in merchandise stolen. MSP Sergeant Mark Thompson told WHMI they're are not releasing any further details due to the ongoing investigation. Anyone with information is asked to contact Trooper Joseph Pendergraff at 810-227-1051. (JM)
