Thieves stole thousands of dollars worth of jewelry, including watches, rings and diamonds from the family-owned business, according to the news station.

Hudson Jewelers was established in 1944 in Granite City, according to the company’s website. There is also a Hudson Jewelers store in Edwardsville, which was the subject of a burglary in January 2016.

Anyone with information on the Granite City burglary should call Granite City Police Department at 618-877-6111.
