Borough police responding to a burglar alarm at the Northvale Jewelry Exchange on Livingston Street shortly after 5 a.m. found the front glass door shattered and several pieces of jewelry scattered outside the store, Police Chief Howard Ostrow said.
Witnesses said they heard glass breaking and then observed a purple Dodge Charger speed away, Ostrow said.
Police with several agencies heard the Northvale police alert and began chasing the Charger, the chief said.
It was last seen heading across the GWB to Washington Heights.
Surveillance footage shows two bandits getting out of the sedan in front of the store, then breaking in and collecting jewelry, Ostrow said.
The chief asked that anyone who might have seen something or has information that could help identify those responsible call the Northvale Police Department: (201) 768-5900.
