Klamath Falls Jewlery Bust

Two men are in the Klamath County jail tonight after allegedly trying to sell a large amount of stolen jewelry.

Police say two men tried to sell stolen gold and jewelry about an hour after it was taken in a burglary Thursday afternoon.

Ray Holliday of Holliday said Jewelry”It seemed a little shady and we didn’t like what it was, and we recognized the description of the jewelry from a description we’d gotten from a customer, so we called the police.”

SGT. Shawn Richards of the Klamath County Sheriffs Office said “We recovered approximately 30 thousand dollars worth of jewelry. So, a big number there is still some missing.”

54 year old Mattio Zanotto of Yreka, and 32 year old Kevin Zimmerman of Klamath Falls were both jailed on theft and burglary charges.
