Jewelry burglars face multiple charges

Three people passing through Lenoir City were recently apprehended after an attempted jewelry burglary.

On Tuesday, July 23, at 8:30 p.m., Lenoir City Police Department officers responded to a report of a theft at a local retail store in Lenoir City.

Upon arrival, officers detained three occupants at Abbie Drive and Highway 321 who were occupying a dark-colored Dodge van matching the description of the vehicle the suspects left in.

The local store’s loss prevention staff reported the three individuals, who were later identified as 27-year-old Chastity Alyse Kay Williams of Cosby, Tenn., 19-yearold Willie Devry Edwin Williams of Ontario, Ohio, and 18-year-old Kalique Latife Jeter-Lipscoms, of Columbus, Ohio. A police report stated the trio forced and broke open a jewelry display case and stole several pieces of jewelry valued at more than $3,000.

The three suspects then made it past all points of sale and made no attempt to pay … and even fled from loss prevention staff when confronted at the door.

A search warrant was granted and executed for the Dodge van on Tuesday, July 23.

The result of the search revealed stolen property and credit cards issued to a victim named Dorsey. Two receipts for purchased jewelry at City Jewelers totaling $4,876 for two 10-karat Cuban gold chains using the victim’s credit cards were also located in the van.
