Miami Beach Police arrested an employee at the iconic Fontainebleau hotel, alleging that he stole a Miami Hurricanes championship ring from the lobby.

Police said the theft happened Sunday at the same hotel where the UM team was staying for the championship game on Monday.

According to an arrest report, surveillance video showed a man – later identified as Jean Dor – picking up a ring from the hotel lobby, placing it into his pocket and then walking away with it.

The ring belonged to Cari-Anne Constant, who was wearing a larger male version of the University of Miami championship ring that had belonged to her former husband. She received the ring as the co-captain of Sunsations dance team.

Constant took it to a party at the LIV nightclub inside the hotel, a celebration for the championship game between the Hurricanes and the Hoosiers, which she attended with her boyfriend, Joe Mullins.

“That ring was very special to her,” Mullins said.

He said Constant took it off momentarily and put it on the table. As she walked out of the hotel, she realized it was missing.

Investigators said surveillance video shows Dor leaving the property, examining the ring outside, then re-entering the hotel with it still in his possession.

Dor never turned the ring into lost and found or notified hotel staff, police said.

“She was pretty shocked. It was very disturbing to her that the ring was stolen,” Mullins said. “It’s worth about $3,500 is what they paid for it.”

Dor told police he intended to turn the ring in but claimed he forgot it on a bathroom counter while cleaning a restroom.

Officers said he was read his Miranda rights in Creole and signed a written statement acknowledging he found the ring and failed to return it.

Dor was suspended from his job, trespassed from the Fontainebleau property, and taken into custody.

“It’s more sentimental,” Mullins said. “It means more to her. I hope he does the right thing and returning it.”

NBC6 reached out to both the hotel and police for the surveillance footage and a comment on the man accused of stealing the ring, but we have not heard back yet.
