According to Polisen Skåne Händelser, a couple entered a goldsmith shop in central Kristianstad and presented a presumed gold necklace. The shop owner purchased the necklace for several thousand kronor. During the transaction, the couple swapped the necklace for a fake one.
They then fled the scene quickly in a car with the money and the presumed genuine necklace. The exact monetary value of the loss has not been disclosed. Police have not released descriptions of the suspects or the vehicle, and it is unclear whether surveillance footage exists.
No leads have been confirmed in the investigation.
