Diamond theft rocks McFarlin gem at museum
Police in Los Angeles seek two suspects after a $250,000 McFarlin diamond was stolen from the Will during a Friday break in. Fingerprints are being compared with national jewel thief records while a composite of the suspect is issued and security agencies monitor airports and hotels. Witnesses describe a stocky man carrying a green lawn chair who waited on the second floor before smashing the display case and fleeing in a waiting car with out of state plates. The diamond, valued with settings at $756,000, was a Canary diamond.
