Eight high-end luggage bags valued at $20,270 were stolen from the Palmer Square shop Zoë last Wednesday morning. While considered luggage, the Celine bags look like handbags.

An employee at the store called police around 11 a.m. on August 1 to say that three young males had come into the store, looked around, grabbed the bags, headed out the front door, and ran west on Hulfish Street.

They were described as light-skinned black males, 18 to 23 years old, with thin builds, ranging from five-feet-ten inches to six-feet tall. The case is under investigation. Anyone with information related to the incident is asked to call Detective Robert Allie at (609) 921-8108.

In another robbery last Wednesday, Hamilton Jewelers on Route 1 in Lawrence Township was hit by masked bandits who took an unknown number of watches about 12:30 p.m. They were not armed, according to police.

The men smashed several cases filled with jewelry and fled on foot up Route 1. The store was robbed in April 2011, also by three robbers who took watches. One of the alleged robbers was later caught in the spree, which also included robbing a gas station and a Chinese restaurant.

Hamilton Jewelers has shops on Princeton’s Nassau Street, in Red Bank, and in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
