In a statement, Centre Mall confirmed the robbery and said that police arrived shortly after being alerted. The mall is cooperating with authorities as the investigation continues.
Despite the incident, Centre Mall remains open and is operating during its regular hours.
Jewels, the store involved, declined to comment on the robbery when approached for a statement.
