On Thursday, June 13, 2024 at 4:30am, City of Beacon Police were called about a burglary in progress at Sky Diamond Jewelry at 226 Main Street, as reported by the Daily Voice. According to the article, the front door glass was broken, which is how investigators thought they got in. Sky Diamond has written in to thank the Beacon community: “We are saddened by the hit to our business, but grateful to a local resident whose swift action to call to the police helped to mitigate further loss and damage to our store.

According to the Highlands Current, the vehicle of the burglars was already speeding away when they approached. According to the articles, Beacon Police pursued the vehicle through town to the Newburgh/Beacon Bridge, and then stopped because they were going at high speeds.
That same morning, burglaries were also reported in at Jaymark Jewelers in Cold Spring, and at Jewelry Designs in Danbury. “According to police, two suspects were arrested in Newark, New Jersey in connection with the break-ins. Officers also recovered several pieces of stolen jewelry,” reported the Daily Voice.
