Fontainebleau hotel worker accused of stealing Miami Hurricanes championship ring
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.

Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra: “Regardless of the scheme is, I always go back to that, it’s just about committing to doing hard things. We were really moving in the zone, taking away airspace and scrambling to challenge shots at the rim. In a lot of these losses in the last month we’ve just been giving up shots at the rim and threes.”

ORLANDO, Fla. — Lionel Messi scored twice in a four-goal second half, defender Telasco Segovia added a goal and two assists and defending champion Inter Miami CF rallied to beat Orlando City SC 4-2 on Sunday night, winning for the first time at Inter&Co Stadium.
Messi took a pass from Segovia and scored in the 57th minute to tie it 2-2, and Segovia scored unassisted in the 85th for the lead. Messi put the finishing touch on the victory when he scored off a free kick in the 90th.
“The victory belongs exclusively to the players,” Miami coach Javier Mascherano said after the game. “In the second half, they were a championship team. There were no tactics, nothing like that. There was heart, courage, possession, resilience, commitment. I think the team came out because they were champions last year.
“In the end, the players showed it. This victory is theirs.”
Messi’s first two goals of the season give him 52 in his first 55 regular-season MLS matches — 51 of them in his past 49 appearances. It also brought the reigning MLS MVP to 898 career goals scored, including 672 for Barcelona and 115 for Argentina.
“He’s the best player to ever play this sport. He’s a leader, and as a leader, he inspires others, but he also often needs to be inspired himself,” Mascherano said of Messi. “When he was driving forward, he had more attacking options, and with so many opportunities, he clearly has the ability to create chances like no one else, and that’s what allowed us to turn the game around.”
Marco Pašalić took a pass from Iván Angulo and scored in the 18th minute to give Orlando City a 1-0 lead. Pašalić has scored in four straight matches against Inter Miami.
Defender Griffin Dorsey set up Martín Ojeda for a goal six minutes later for a 2-0 advantage that stood through halftime.
Inter Miami cut it to 2-1 four minutes into the second half on Mateo Silvetti’s first career goal. Defenders Segovia and Facundo Mura had assists as the 20-year-old forward found the net in his fifth career appearance.
Segovia had eight goals and six assists as a rookie last season, while Mura collected his first assist in his first season.
Dayne St. Clair, the reigning goalkeeper of the year, turned away three shots — all in the second half of his second start with Inter Miami, but let in a soft goal for Orlando’s first.
Maxime Crépeau had four saves in his second start for Orlando City.
Teenager Colin Guske, 19, will miss Orlando City’s next match after the rookie picked up two yellow cards in his first start — the second one led to his exit in the 88th minute.
Inter Miami, which had never won in its previous nine trips to Orlando, was coming off a 3-0 road loss to LAFC.
Orlando City swept Inter Miami during the regular season last year and leads the all-time series 8-7-4.
Inter Miami plays D.C. United on Saturday at Audi Field. Orlando City is also on the road with a match against New York City FC.
