Third man remanded for jewel heist

A 26-year-old  man who appeared at Edinburgh Sheriff Court yesterday in connection with an armed robbery at a city jewellery store has been remanded in custody.

Aldaire Warmington, charged with assault and robbery and making no plea nor declaration, was the third man to appear in court after jewels to the value of £1 million were stolen during a raid on Rox, George Street, on Tuesday 15 January 2013.

Two other men from the Manchester area appeared in court last week. Elliott Jorgenson,25, and 26-year-old Lincoln Warmington were both charged with assault and robbery and were remanded in custody as the case was continued for further examination.

Since the raid, Rox is said to have spent £50,000 on added security which includes a full-time guard.
