Shillong, July 31: Indian and South Asian families residing in various towns across Massachusetts, USA, have been increasingly targeted by thieves for their valuable jewelry, as reported by CBS News.

The law enforcement, including the FBI, is investigating the robbery cases in towns such as Billerica, Natick, Weston, Wellesley, Easton, and North Attleboro.
