Sunnyvale: Would-be robbers ram jewelry store, leave empty-handed

By Bay City News

A jewelry store in the Ponderosa Park section of Sunnyvale was rammed by a vehicle in an attempted robbery Friday but armed employees fended off the culprits, police said.

The jeweler’s building, located in the 1000 block of East El Camino Real, was rammed about 3:12 p.m., police said.

“Armed employees from within the store confronted the suspects, prompting them to flee in separate vehicles before they were able to enter the store,” police said. “No shots were fired, no items or cash were taken, and fortunately, no injuries were reported.”

One of the vehicles used in the getaway was later found. It was determined to have been stolen, as was the vehicle that was used to ram the building and abandoned at the scene, police said.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective E. Rosette at (408) 730-7110.
