About 20 suspects stormed a jewelry store in San Ramon, CA, in what police called a “takeover-style” robbery.

Several suspects were armed with handguns, and at least one fired rounds through the front entrance, the San Ramon Police Department stated.

The crime happened shortly before 2 p.m. Monday at Heller Jewelers, with the masked individuals entering the store, smashing display cases and taking “numerous items,” according to police.

No one was injured.

More from the press release:

The suspects fled the scene in awaiting cars they had staged in the City Center valet parking area. San Ramon Police Officers pursued some of the involved vehicles but terminated due to the inherent danger to the public and because air support was overhead and available to continue tracking the suspect vehicle. Law Enforcement air support tracked the suspects through Contra Costa and into Alameda County. Several suspects have been detained at two locations in Oakland and a second location in Dublin. San Ramon Detectives will tirelessly continue their investigation into this incident and ask anyone who may have witnessed the robbery to contact Detective Corporal Kevin Tjahjadi at (925) 733-7316.

The San Ramon Police Department would like to thank the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office and the Oakland Police Department for their assistance. This incident is still under active investigation, and we will not be releasing any additional information until it is appropriate, as it may compromise the ongoing investigative efforts.
