ATLANTA (AP) -- Atlanta police are looking for a hospital employee who they believe took wedding and engagement rings from a woman who died in a car crash.
Police obtained an arrest warrant Wednesday on a charge of theft by taking for Tacuma Jawara of Atlanta, a 54-year-old social services representative at Grady Memorial Hospital.
Atlanta police Detective P.J. Roberson says 35-year-old Katherine Armstrong was airlifted to Grady April 30th after a wreck on Interstate 85.
After her death, her wedding and engagement rings valued at $5,000 were missing.
Roberson says Jawara was assigned to take care of Armstrong's property and a video surveillance camera showed him carrying a plastic bag believed to hold Armstrong's rings.
