Low tonight, 33; high tomor- row, 38, VOL. 26--NO, 283 S 10¢ Sin le C SS5e Per Week Taina Colhiahad BRAZEN JEWEL THIEVES WHITBY (Staff) .-- When two thieves threw a 50-pound granite rock through the front display window of McCul- lough Jewellers, Whitby, shortly before midnight last night, they had about two seconds to fill their pockets before the store owner came running out from the back after them. Frank McCullough said he was doing some assessment work when he heard a crash and the alarm went off. 'I immediately knew what was happening so I ran towards the front of the store and saw two men helping themselves to some watches and dia- monds." Mr. McCullough said when the men saw him they ran. He chased them outside but they outdistanced him and got away. After returning to the store Mr. McCullough heard a car start and ran out again to see the men getting away. "If I had had a gun I would have shot them," he said. "But that's not like me -- I'm normally a_ very very peaceful man -- I'm glad I didn't have a gun." Value of the goods in the window was about $2,500 but the thieves got little more than a few hundred dollars worth. No arrests have been made as yet but police have a good description of the two men and the car. Deputy Chief Gerald Rob- inson, Whitby Town Police, said several people observed two men lurking near the store shortly before the inci- dent.
