A 53-year-old man has been arrested for attempting to steal a tray of “high-dollar" jewelry from a Scottsdale store, police said.

The suspect, Troy A. Bell, was stopped by two men at about 11:40 a.m. Sept. 1 as he was leaving Marina Jewelers, near 5^th Avenue and Scottsdale Road.

“On his way out the door, he encountered two brave men who were entering the jewelers and tried to stop him,” police said Saturday in a release.

“The three reportedly got into a fight which ultimately resulted in Bell being detained by the two men, and some other helpers.”

Police arrived and arrested him a short time later. Police said they believe the jewelry has been recovered.

Bell was booked and held in custody for charges that include shoplifting, assault and failure to provide a truthful name.

He was sent Friday night for booking at the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office jail in Phoenix.
