$10,000 jewelry set missing from home: Orange Police Blotter - Cleveland Plain Dealer

LOST PROPERTY, LANDER ROAD: An elderly woman reported Saturday that she had placed her wedding ring set, valued at $10,000, on the sink counter in her master bedroom Friday night and when she woke up, she could not find it, even after searching the house with one of her home health care aides. The ring is described as gold encrusted with diamonds and emeralds, with a separate gold ring that raps around the main setting.

ASSIST OTHER AGENCY, ORANGE PLACE: Maple Heights police called Oct. 12 seeking help in serving a warrant on a man, 34, who was staying at the Super 8 motel in Orange. Police arrived about noon and learned from management that the man had checked out earlier in the day. But as police were exiting the parking lot, they noticed the suspect returning to the motel, where he got another room. The female driver of the car who dropped him off was detained briefly on a warrant from Parma. Another woman answering the phone at the motel said the suspect wasn't there, at which point police said they saw him peeking out of a window in the room they had called. Maple Heights police later made verbal contact with him through the door and he was subsequently arrested without incident.

VEHICLE RECOVERED, ORANGE PLACE: Police responding late Oct. 14 to an auto lockout at Red Lobster ran a vehicle check on the 1999 Ford Taurus, which came back as "unauthorized use" from Elite Motor Cars on Miles Avenue in Cleveland. The driver, a Garfield Heights man said it was possible that his girlfriend from Euclid may have "missed some payments" on the car, which was impounded.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE, PIKE DRIVE: Police responded at 10:45 a.m. on Oct.11 to a report of a woman whom the caller said was trying to kill herself with pills and carbon monoxide exhaust fumes. Upon arrival, police found the subject in an enclosed garage with the engine running on her car, which they turned off, and then talked her into an evaluation at South Pointe Hospital.

Shooting in NE Phila. jewelry store leaves 2 dead - KABC

Posted: 21 Oct 2010 03:04 PM PDT

NORTHEAST PHILADELPHIA - October 21, 2010 (WPVI) -- A jewelry store owner and a would-be robber are dead after a shooting in Northeast Philadelphia.

It happened around 10:50 a.m. Thursday at William Glatz Jewelers in the 6400 block of Rising Sun Avenue.

Sources say two men went into the store to rob it.

That's when there was an exchange of gunfire between the robbers and Glatz, the 67-year-old owner.

Glatz was shot in the chest and rushed to Albert Einstein Medical Center where he later died.

One of the robbers was shot in the head and died at the scene.

The other robber fled and is still at large. No description of that person has been released so far. Police say he may have left the scene in a black car.

Police said they will be reviewing surveillance video for any clues.

Investigators said nothing was taken from the store and that no customers were in the store at the time of the shooting. However, there were two employees in the store at the time.

William Glatz Jewelers has been a fixture in the neighborhood for decades, long before merchants found the need to arm themselves.

Now?

"I would say about 70% of the shop owners are armed," said business owner Salvatore LaValle.

Those who knew Glatz were distraught over his violent death.

"Heartbroken. We lose another one. We had a shooting a couple of years ago where a grocer was killed," said Ken Hyers of Lawncrest Town Watch.

"We've known Bill Glatz for over 30 years. We've gone in for our wedding rings and all our jewelry," said Rick Schoeniger of Fox Chase. "Great guy, great community guy."
