"While his black suit and dress shoes allowed him to fit in at Nadeen and George Farahat's 300-guest wedding in Glendale, he couldn't hide from the security cameras inside, which captured clear pictures of his uncovered face before, during and after the wedding crash-and-grab."
""A lot of tips came in from that. Some were good, some were bad. That's helped us identify the suspects pretty early on in the investigation," said Sgt. Jose Barajas with the Glendale Police Department."
""Obviously, this person did hit the jackpot. We believe they got about $60,000 and a few checks. We did recover 26 checks in total and about $10,000," Barajas said."
Two men were arrested after a wedding gift box was stolen at a Glendale banquet hall. A video showed a man in a black suit taking the couple's gift box during their 300-guest wedding, and security cameras captured clear images of his uncovered face. Tips from the footage helped investigators identify and arrest Armean Shirehjini five days after the wedding, and police identified the getaway driver as Andranik Avetisyan. Officers recovered 26 checks and about $10,000 in cash from a safe at a suspect's home, and police executed search warrants on both suspects' homes. The bride sobbed on the dance floor.
