JUNE 19--Police dashcam video captured officers struggling with a convicted jewel thief in an attempt to keep the man from swallowing stolen Tiffany & Co. diamonds worth $770,000. After being shown to a private room, the man grabbed two sets of diamond earrings (worth $609,500 and $160,000) and bolted from the store. While under guard at the hospital, cops told Gilder “they would be collecting his earrings as evidence,” a Colorado Springs Police Department report states. Gilder subsequently passed three of the Tiffany earrings later in the day on March 10, and the remaining diamond earring on March 12. Gilder “was eventually returned to custody in this room after causing extensive damage to the drop-ceiling,” cops reported.
