From Times Wire Reports
Police were searching for a group of men that stole nearly $120,000 worth of jewelry from a store at the Reno Hilton Mall.
The theft was discovered when store clerks took an inventory at closing time Friday night.
Police said a surveillance camera showed one man taking items from a display case while two or three companions distracted store clerks.
Stolen were a necklace, bracelet, ring and earrings, all with diamonds.
Police think the same men committed similar thefts at two Las Vegas jewelry stores last week.
