Published on 07/01/12

Seconds after a man snatched a rare $28,000 yellow diamond ring out of an employee's hand at Westfield Franklin Park Mall, he was tackled by mall patrons.

The incident happened Thursday evening just before 6:30 p.m. at the Diamonds Forever store inside the mall.

The employee asked to see the pretend jewelry shopper's identification before letting the suspected thief see the priceless ring, the employee told FOX Toledo News. The man showed him a picture identification but the picture didn't look like the man, the employee said.
