A man on probation for robbery is back in prison accused of stealing tens of thousands of dollars worth in jewelry and gold in the past couple of weeks.

Fifty-three-year-old David Quichocho Uncango Jr. is charged with two counts of retail theft.

Police said Uncangco allegedly stole two gold baht chains and a diamond pendant worth more than $24,000 dollars from the Vince Jewelers in East Agana Friday morning.

Uncango is also accused of allegedly taking off with a 24 karat gold coin from a pawn shop in Dededo last month. The coin priced at more than $3,000. 

Investigators tracked him down in a car he recently rented. 

Authorities also found a baggie with meth and one of the stolen chains during the arrest. 

A witness allegedly told police Uncango was seen at two other pawn shops trying to pawn the jewelry.

Uncangco allegedly admitted to officers he was on probation in a 2013 federal case where he admitted to stealing a bank money bag and robbing a Yigo store at gunpoint.
