The Fort Pierce Police Department is asking for the public’s help in identifying and locating three suspects who robbed a local pawn shop.

On Tuesday, September 12, 2023, at approximately 8:46 a.m., Fort Pierce Police officers responded to Value Pawn & Jewelry, located at 2512 South U.S. Highway 1, in regards to an armed robbery. Investigation revealed three black males entered the store. One suspect held the employees at gunpoint while a second suspect broke the jewelry cases with a sledgehammer. The third suspect then loaded the contents into a bag and all three fled in a stolen 2020 black Honda Accord that was later recovered.

The first suspect is described as a black male standing approximately 5-foot-11-inches to 6-foot-1-inches tall and weighing approximately 200 pounds. He was last seen wearing a bright orange construction-type vest and hat.

The second and third suspects are described as black males in their late teens to early twenties. Both suspects are believed to be approximately 5-foot-10-inches to 6-feet tall, weighing about 200 pounds and wearing dark-colored pants and hoodies.

Anyone with information about the crime or the suspects is asked to contact Detective Kevin Mohamed at 772-467-6905 (office), 772-979-1451 (cell) or kmohamed@fppd.org. If you wish to remain anonymous, call Treasure Coast Crime Stoppers at 1-(800)-273-8477. All three of these suspects are considered armed and dangerous and shouldn’t be approached.
