Three Arrested in Connection With Robbery at Beverly Hills Jewelry Store
Two men and a juvenile were arrested Wednesday in connection with a smash-and-grab robbery at a store in Beverly Hills in which about $5 million worth of jewelry was stolen.
Beverly Hills Police Department and FBI tactical teams conducted simultaneous warrant services at three locations in Long Beach Wednesday, arresting Deshon Bell, 20, and a juvenile whose name was not released because of his age, according to Lt. Giovanni Trejo, the BHPD’s public information officer.
Jimmy Lee Vernon, 31, of Gardena, was arrested overnight by California Highway Patrol officers during a traffic stop in Barstow. He was arrested and booked at the BHPD station per a federal criminal complaint for robbery, Trejo said.
