"Heller Jewelry Store at the Bishop Ranch complex in San Ramon was robbed Monday afternoon in broad daylight by a large group of around 25 masked individuals, at least three of them armed with guns. As ABC 7 reports, and as seen in surveillance video, the thieves used crowbars to smash glass cases, and stole an estimated $1 million in jewels."
"San Ramon police said Wednesday that they had arrested seven suspects so far, with the help of surveillance and drone video and much like crimes like this that have happened around the Bay Area in recent years, the getaway vehicles are usually not hard to track down, and there are probably a half dozen or more in this case. Officers with the San Ramon PD initiated a chase of some of the suspect vehicles, which were parked in a valet area about 100 feet from the store, but when speeds exceeded 100 miles per hour, the chases were abandoned and drones were employed. Oakland police assisted with four of the arrests, as ABC 7 reports, with three adults and a juvenile arrested in Oakland. Alameda County Sheriff's Deputies arrested three other adults at the Dublin BART station. The arrested suspects ranged in age from 17 to 31, and all seven are reportedly Oakland residents."
