A cruise ship visitor to St. Thomas on Wednesday, November 1, is trying to return a gold and diamond ring to its owner, but she does not remember who she got the ring from.
The tourist said she visited many stores, trying on clothes and jewelry.
The female tourist turned the ring over to the V.I. Police Department. She told police that she had visited about 50 stores in Havensight and downtown Charlotte Amalie and in one of them she tried on a gold and diamond ring.
VI Police Department officers said the ring is valued at about $1,000. Once the tourist realized the ring was still on her finger after she left the store, she sought out a police officer and handed her the ring.
VIPD officers are asking the owners and employees of Havensight and downtown stores to call 340-715-5548 if they are missing a gold and diamond ring.
The owners will be asked a series of questions to ascertain that the ring belongs to the store. Additionally the store owner will be asked for their contact information and will be required to sign a release before taking possession of the ring.
