At least one of the men spoke with a southern Irish accent

This is the moment suspected thieves entered a jewellery store in a county Armagh one hour before stealing from another.

Two men, in the grey t-shirts, are believed to have stolen a diamond ring worth £2,500 from Faith Jewellers in Rushmere on Thursday afternoon.

The footage above, posted by Rodney Simmons on Facebook, shows the two men enter a store in Portadown, an hour before the incident in Craigavon.

One of the men has been described by police as being in his 40s, with short dark hair, wearing dark coloured track bottoms and a grey top.

He also spoke with a Southern Irish accent and is believed to have been in the company of a second male.

Police are appealing to anyone who witnessed the incident or anyone with any information that can assist with the investigation to contact officers in Lurgan on 101 quoting reference number 460 of 12/05/17 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
