WOODBRIDGE —At least one burglar broke into an Iselin jewelry store early this week and stole dozens of items worth nearly $31,000, police said Wednesday.
Officers responded to Jaipur Jewelers on Marconi Avenue at 12:30 p.m. Tuesday and found that someone had cut the lock, pried open the steel security gate and smashed the front glass door to get inside, a police report said.
A glass display case in the back room was broken. Taken were 13 necklace and earring sets, with a total value of $30,900, the store owner told police.
The store is slightly more than 100 feet from Virani Jewelers, the site of a burglary
and theft of some $50,000 worth of merchandise on Nov. 18. The theft occurred after someone apparently smashed the front window with a wooden two-by-four and ransacked the display cases, according to a police report.
At that time, police also found that someone attempted to break into another store, Sona Jewelers, also on Marconi Avenue.
