Forsyth County police are still looking for two suspects in connection with a September jewelry store burglary. So far, 11 people have been arrested and charged in the heist.

Deputies are looking for Michael Willie Young, 43, of Atlanta and Devoria Raynard Wright, 35, of College Park.

Young uses the alias of "Herman Young, Jr." or may go by "Mike", investigators said in a news release issued Friday. He has been arrested before for a similar burglary in Aubu, Alabama.

Wright also goes by the name "Billy Ray", investigators said.

The two men are wanted in connection with the September burglary of Milano Fine Jewelry in Cumming. To get inside, police said the suspects cut through a concrete wall from an empty adjoining property. Investigators said it must have taken hours.

Jewelry store owner Ibrahim Ehicam said all his display cases were cleaned out and even his cash register was stolen.

"In working with other jurisdictions across the Southeast, we believe that several of the persons we have arrested or identified as suspects have been involved in up to 23 different burglaries involving businesses who sell jewelry," Lt. Col. Gene Moss of the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office said in the news release. "These burglaries have amounted to over $22 million in property damage and stolen goods."

So far, 11 people have been arrested and charged in the burglary of Milano Fine Jewelry.

In December alone, three people were arrested. The Forsyth County Sheriff's Office provided the following information about those three suspects:

    Eric Lanard Stephens, 35, of Lynford Dr., S.W., Atlanta. Stephens was arrested on unrelated charges and violating his probation by Fulton County authorities. He was taken to the Fulton County Jail and is now being held in the Forsyth County Detention Center with no bond.
    James Junior Love, 41, of Lucile Ave., S.W., Atlanta. Love was taken into custody by Clayton County authorities during the commission of a burglary at a flea market on Tara Boulevard. He is currently being held in the Clayton County jail on charges stemming from that burglary.
    Giacobi Trevell Kelly, 35, of Holdeess St., Atlanta. Kelly was arrested at his residence by the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office Warrant and Fugitive Unit. He is being held in the Forsyth County Detention Center with no bond.

Another suspect was killed in an unrelated domestic dispute in East Point, Ga. on Dec. 22, the news release said.
