ROCHESTER, N.Y. — The New York Gold Diamond Pawn Shop will be open this Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. for customers looking to finish any transactions, according to Greece Police.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office tells News10NBC anyone with items still held by the shop needs to deal with the shop directly. You can call the shop or check its website.
Last week, six people were charged with money laundering stolen goods through the shop, including the two owners of the pawn shop.
