In a shocking turn of events, a mother and son duo have been arrested for an armed robbery in Hialeah, Florida. The incident, which took place last month, involved the theft of over $800,000 worth of jewelry. However, their elaborate plan was ultimately foiled by the local police.
The surveillance video obtained by authorities shows the pair devising their plan to steal the precious jewelry. The footage also captures the moment when the son, identified as Julian Flores, wearing all black clothing and a face mask, robbed the jeweler. Reports indicate that he pistol-whipped the victim before making off with her jewelry. In a startling turn of events, he even discharged his firearm during the incident.
What makes this case even more intriguing is the involvement of the mother, Flores Diaz. Police say that she played a crucial role in the robbery by acting as a lookout and getaway driver. According to reports, Diaz posed as an interested buyer and regularly contacted the victim to inquire about the jewelry. This provided her with valuable information and helped orchestrate the crime.
The police launched a thorough investigation, and thanks to the cooperation of Enterprise employees, who identified the getaway vehicle, the authorities were able to apprehend the mother and son duo. The stolen jewelry, valued at nearly $1 million, was successfully recovered by the Hialeah Police Department.
Both Flores and Diaz are now facing charges of armed robbery with a deadly weapon. They are currently being held without bond and are prohibited from contacting the victim.
