Authorities arrested 32-year-old Luis Angel Herrera Ramirez in connection to a burglary that took place at the International Jewelers Exchange in Aventura back in October.
Police said Ramirez and two other men drove a stolen tow truck into the store on Biscayne Boulevard, making several attempts to steal a safe. They drove off empty-handed but left behind a trail of damage.
Ramirez is facing one count of burglary/smash and grab, one count of grand theft auto, and one count of criminal mischief/vandalism, according to Aventura Police.
