Police in New York City have arrested a suspect tied to the Diamond District heist that took place last week.
The crime took place at Watch Standard Jewelry on the afternoon of Nov. 11, just near the Veterans Day parade. Police say the thieves escaped with just over $500,000 in jewelry and cash.
According to the New York Times, 37-year-old Ronald Frisby was arrested at his home in Manhattan yesterday afternoon. The Times adds that Frisby is not one of the two men captured by surveillance cameras in a video they released last week, and would not disclose the role he played in the crime.
The Times reports that police identified a second suspect as 58-year-old Leon Fenner, and have turned to the public for help in locating him.
Frisby will appear in a Manhattan federal court today to face robbery charges. Meanwhile, the NYPD says they are still working to identify a third suspect.
