A man was arrested on April Fool's Day 2014 for trying to steal a $25,000 diamond at an Arizona jewelry store and switch it with a fake one that was in his earring. Phuoc Tran, 27, asked to hold the diamond while shopping at a jewelry store in Arizona Mills Mall and examined it in front of two store employees. He turned around and held it out of the employee's sight, turned back around and said "April Fool's" while handing one of the employees a cubic zirconia fake. The staff recognized it was phony and confronted Tran, who ran out of the store. The next day, Tran sent a text message to the employee stating the theft was a prank. He returned to the store with the diamond where he was later arrested and told police he wanted to give the real diamond to a woman he intended to propose marriage to.
