$5,000 in Jewelry Stolen from Hoboken Gym
One man had his belongings stolen while working out.
More than $5,000 in jewelry was stolen from a closed locker at Club H on Sunday around 1:30 p.m., police said.
A 43-year-old Jersey City man arrived at the gym around 12:30 for a work out, he told police. Before he started his routine, he locked his belongings inside his locker.
When the man returned to locker number 32 about an hour later, he noticed that the locker wasn't completely closed, police said. The man's wallet with driver's licence and credit cards was stolen, as well as a gold necklace with a cross (worth $5,000) and a $200 watch, police said.
Another man, a 28-year-old Hobokenite, had arrived at the gym around 12:15 and put his stuff in locker 29, police said. While his locker was broken into as well—the locker's door was damaged—nothing was missing, police said.
Around 1:20 a maintenance employee of the gym returned towels to the men's dressing room, police said. The man, however, told police that he hadn't noticed that the lockers had been opened and that there was nobody in the locker room when he was there.
I'ts unknown how the lockers were opened. No arrests were made.

Whoever you are, you should seriously seek psychiatric help. You post on here morning noon and night about how bad Zimmer is. Does she haunt your dreams too?
If you are getting paid to do this I would guess there is more satisfying work available for more money. Try and find some. If you are not getting paid you may want to consider a mental health facility.

Or this is a scam. I guess the fact that this tool walks into the gym with a $5000 necklace on, takes it out and starts working out - no one would notice that he is not wearing it anymore....BS
A 43-year-old Jersey City man arrived at the gym around 12:30 for a work out, he told police. - Bet there are all of 20 people in the gym (if not less) at that time.

Sounds like this guy should talk to the undergrad who had $6000 in cash stolen from his apartment. I don't believe either of these stories--

I used to work out there. Most guys don't even bother using a lock.
