Suspect wanted after attempted jewelry store robbery



The Windsor Police Service is seeking the public’s help identifying a suspect involved in an attempted smash-and-grab robbery at a mall jewelry store. It was the second time in three days that a jewelry store in the shopping mall was the target of a robbery.

Shortly before 2 p.m. on April 6, 2025, officers responded to a report of an attempted robbery at a jewelry store located inside a mall in the 7600 block of Tecumseh Road East. A man, wearing a black face covering and black clothing, entered the store and used a weapon to attempt to smash a glass display case. When the glass did not break, the suspect fled the scene and was seen by witnesses entering a 2001 silver Chrysler Sebring parked outside the mall.

A short time later, officers located the suspect’s vehicle unoccupied in the 2600 block of Meadowbrook Lane. The vehicle has been seized as part of the ongoing investigation.

Residents and business owners with dashcam or surveillance footage, particularly those who reside in the 2600 block of Meadowbrook Ln. and the 7600 block of Tecumseh Rd. E., are asked to check for video evidence between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Windsor Police Major Crime Unit at 519-255-6700 ext. 4830. They can also contact Windsor & Essex County Crime Stoppers anonymously at 519-258-8477 (TIPS) or online at www.catchcrooks.com.
