Couple Robs Jewelry Store; Leaves Child Behind

I wonder if this kid will remember all those life lessons that his parents instilled in him at such a young age, most importantly the “no snitchin’ ‘” one.

“(They) robbed the store, then fled, dragging the child by the hand for 2½ blocks, then lacerated the store owner’s facial-neck area, and then abandoned the child on the 700 block of Rodman Street.”


Philadelphia police were hunting for a couple who grabbed over $100,000 worth of jewelry from a South Street store.  They slashed a store clerk, then left behind a young child during their getaway.

Authorities say the man and woman with a four-year-old child (pictured above) were shopping for rings at “Platinum and Ice,” on the 600 block of South Street, around 3pm Saturday.

But police say when the clerk turned his back, the couple grabbed a jewelry tray and ran out of the store.

The store owner gave chase, but the suspect pulled a knife and slashed him across his face and neck.

South Detectives captain Laurence Nodiff:

“(They) robbed the store, then fled, dragging the child by the hand for 2½ blocks, then lacerated the store owner’s facial-neck area, and then abandoned the child on the 700 block of Rodman Street.”

The boy is in the care of DHS.  The store owner needed 12 stitches.

Investigators are asking anyone who might have seen what happened to call South Detectives at 215-686-3013.
