Police said all three suspects, two men and one woman, were taken to a San Joaquin County jail for robbery, conspiracy, and assault with a deadly weapon.

Police said that in April, a 21-year-old man from Tracy and a 20-year-old man from Stockton approached two people who were leaving a business in the Valley Shopping Center and demanded they hand over their jewelry while holding them at gunpoint.

“The two suspects were able to flee the area before the arrival of police officers, and the investigation into the robbery was turned over to detectives,” the Tracy Police Department said.

As detectives were working to follow up on the April robbery, they were called to another robbery at a San Joaquin County Walmart where a 21-year-old man and a 24-year-old woman from Manteca stole another person’s jewelry.
