Thieves strike Loghman Jewelry at Del Mar Plaza overnight through vacant store next door, take $55K...
While many people were sleeping, an intrepid thief was working hard, striking Loghman Jewelers at Del Mar Plaza through a wall from an adjacent vacant store and taking $55,000 in goods, according to the San Diego County Sheriff's Department.
A security guard arriving somewhat late at the allegedly alarm-protected store at 1555 Camino Del Mar around 10:30 a.m. reported the burglary, said Sheriff's Sgt. Richard Goggin.
Or maybe it was a case of practice makes sort of perfect.
A week ago thieves used a similar M-O at a la Jolla jewelry store, but authorities did not know if the attempted heists were related.
Burglars broke into Bulfer Jewelry on Girard Street, La Jolla in a similar way, finding only empty jewelry boxes.
"They got a few little things," said store owner Sean Loghman as sales continued as usual at the store. "We had some repairs that were done that were finished that day that were locked up in my office and they got that."
Loghman said the thief was not able to get all of the store's jewelry.
"The jewelry, the watches [and] everything gets locked up in the safe and that's not accessible," he said.
Loghman Jewelers is a family owned and operated boutique located in the Del Mar Plaza since 1989.
