VERO BEACH –The Vero Beach Police Department is looking for two white, male suspects between the ages of 25-35 who participated in a brash armed robbery of Wilson’s Fine Jewelry Store.
Owner Lou Wilson, 69, was hit with a Taser about 1 p.m. on Saturday, which was then cycled through two more times. The thieves ransacked his back office safe and came away with as much as $100,000 in gems and jewelry. Wilson said all the items taken belonged to him and that none were the property of his customers.
Vero Beach Police spokesman John Morrison said the investigation was ongoing and would not speculate if the suspects were locals or out-of-towners.
The suspects fled in an older model gray Dodge Neon.
Anyone with information about this crime should call Crime Stoppers at (800) 273-TIPS (8477).
