Two additional suspects have been arrested in connection with the high-profile smash-and-grab heist at San Jose's Kim Hung Jewelry, raising the total number of arrests to 15. The San Jose Police Department confirmed the latest arrests on December 22, 2025, as part of their comprehensive crackdown on the retail theft ring.
