ANOKA, Minn. – Last summer, three thieves escaped with over $150,000 worth of merchandise from Gould’s Jewlery in Anoka. One of three people suspected of stealing the merchandise was arrested within days of the robbery, while warrants for the other two were just issued this week.
Desmen Lee Parker, 32, of St. Paul (pictured) was arrested and charged with second degree burglary, possession of burglary tools, and fleeing a peace officer in a motor vehicle last summer; now, two other men have been charged with aiding and abetting burglary, theft, and possession of burglary tools– all of which are felony charges.
Travail Adam Crumble and Richard Lee Holston were charged the crime following recorded phone calls made by Parker from jail and through DNA evidence found in the car used to drive away from the jewelry store. All three of these charges are felony counts. Crumble is currently in the Saint Cloud Correctional Facility on unrelated charges.
