Three men sought in Belfast jewellers robbery
Detectives in Musgrave Street are appealing for information following an armed robbery at a jewellers shop in south Belfast.
Shortly after 9.30am on Monday morning, three men, one armed with a handgun, entered the shop on the Lisburn Road and threatened staff. They then stole a quantity of diamond rings worth an estimated £150,000.
It is understood the men fled in a waiting car, possibly a silver Ford Focus which was later found on fire at Randal Park. Police believe this car may have been used by the robbers before they changed into a second vehicle.
Police are particularly keen to speak to a motorcyclist who was parked outside the shop between 9.15am and 9.30am on the morning of the incident.
Detectives also believe the robbers may have been in the Lisburn Road and Randal Park areas over the previous weekend.
Detectives can be contacted on 028 9065 0222 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
