FBI Chicago, Illinois Attorney General’s Office Seeking Information about Multiple Suspects in Jewelry Store Armed Robberies in Bridgeview

Douglas S. DePodesta, special agent in charge of the Chicago Division of the FBI, and Kwame Raoul, attorney general for the State of Illinois, are seeking information about four masked suspects involved in armed robberies taking place at four jewelry stores across three states between July 13, 2023, and September 14, 2024. Authorities are urging anyone with information to contact the FBI.

The robberies in question have taken place at jewelry stores in Bridgeview, Illinois, as well as in Michigan and Missouri. According to law enforcement, suspects alternately carried an AR-style rifle, handgun, and hammer, and wore costume face masks. The FBI on October 30 released surveillance video footage of robberies that took place at stores in Bridgeview, Illinois, and Dearborn, Michigan. The video and images of the costume masks are available at fbi.gov/wanted/seeking-information.

“The perpetrators of these crimes showed a blatant disregard for public safety and the rule of law during the commission of these brazen robberies,” DePodesta said. “Their actions will haunt these victims for a lifetime, and we’re asking for the public’s help to bring them to justice before someone is killed. We encourage the public to take a good look at the images we’ve released today and contact us with tips before these violent individuals strike again.”
