Saturday after Thanksgiving a man armed with a silver revolver robbed a Cash America Pawn Shop in Lubbock, Texas, and got away with 276 pieces of jewelry valued at $40,000. News reports here and here.
The store had cameras about the place, and a photo of the perp is currently posted in Cash America store windows announcing a $10,000 reward for information that leads to this guy's capture. Also, Crime Line, the crime reporting hot line, is offering another $1,000.
If this guy's acquaintances have seen this photo, they know who it is. It's only a matter of time before someone decides to cash in that lottery ticket.
Post script. Speaking of rewards, the big bounty money is on the terrorists. Seems like some mercenaries would have tried to collect that $25 million for Osama bin Laden.
Updated 3/1/2010: Captured! Keenon Jones was arrested in Dallas after police were alerted by staff at a gold buying company in Florida where he tried to sell some jewelry. See Lubbockonline.com, Myfoxlubbock.com and Everythinglubbock.com.
