Giants Super Bowl Rings Stolen In Attleboro Heist
Giants Super Bowl Rings Stolen In Attleboro, MA Heist

ATTLEBORO (WBZ) ―

Police say New York Giants Super Bowl rings were among the $2 million worth
of items stolen from an Attleboro jewelry company sometime over the weekend.

Thieves disabled the alarm system at E.A. Dion's building on Franklin McKay
Drive, cut a hole in the roof and made off with a safe that weighed at least
1,000 pounds. It held the rings, gold, and gems.

The hole in the roof cut by thieves over the weekend.


The incident was discovered by an employee on Sunday when she was unable to access
her work e-mail from home, apparently because the phone lines had been cut.


The Super Bowl rings, which were manufactured by the company, were to be given
to the Giants staff to commemorate New York's 17-14 win over the New England
Patriots in February, team spokesman Pat Hanlon said.

The white gold rings -- which were designed by Tiffany and Co. and valued at $25,000
-- were exactly the same as the ones players and coaches received last month.

The team's "NY" logo is set in round diamonds, while "World Champions" is emblazoned
in raised letters on the top and bottom bezel, with channel-set diamonds on the left
and right bezel. The rings also feature the team's three Super Bowl trophies.




The company does not discuss specific customer's orders, President Edward Dion Jr. said.

"We've talked to our major customers and let them know what happened, and I am confident
we'll be able to fulfill our orders," he said.

The family-owned company, which has been in business for 40 years, was back up
running at full speed and re-evaluating security, Dion said.

There are no suspects. It's considered the biggest heist in Attleboro's history.

Anyone with information is asked to call Attleboro police at 508.222.1269.



No suspects? Sounds like an inside job, to me!

1. maybe from an employee
I hope the thieves don't melt the rings down before they get caught, if they ever do. They could be replaced, but it wouldn't mean the same thing. Aren't there cameras all over those kind of stores?

:wtf:

It isn't a store, I don't think. It's a manufacturing place.

What a loser ( the snitch liar) he turned out to be! :eyes:

It's over. Get over it....

Attacking me for something that happened two or three years ago is ludicrous.

It's done. It's over. Move on!

How do you think the theifs were able to get a 1,000 lb safe out through the roof?

Perhaps, but the Pats were dumb enough or so brazen that they got caught. They're on record as cheating-ass cheaters who needed to film their opponents to win. So much for the genius of Belicheat, Brady, Weis, et. al.

Oh, by the way, Belicheat fucked a married woman, ruining her marriage and taking his mind off not having to mentor his son...you know, the one picked up for ganja.

How do I think the thieves were able to get a 1,000 lb safe out through the roof? Easy...they loaded up Nick Kaczur with a double hit of Oxycodene and lowered him in...he's unstoppable!
