Glendale, AZ--Glendale police responded to an emergency call on March 16 about four men robbing nine victims in a jewelry store at 75th Ave and Bell Rd.

According to Glendale Police Department's Facebook post, the woman told the 911 operator that the men were armed and held store employees and customers at gunpoint. They also tied a few of them with zip ties.
