Two men who robbed a south side jewelry store Wednesday morning didn't get far after swiping money and jewelry from the business, Milwaukee police said.

As they left the store in the 1100 block of W. Historic Mitchell St. about 10:50 a.m., the two robbers - at least one of whom had a handgun - were met by a group of at least four men who robbed them, Lt. Thomas Welch said.

A fight broke out on the street before both groups got into their vehicles, sparking a chase, Welch said.

Milwaukee police officers pulled over both vehicles, arresting four people - the two original robbers, ages 31 and 40, and two men from the second group, ages 22 and 27, Welch said. All four of the arrested men were from Illinois, he said.

Police did not recover the jewelry or money and were searching for additional suspects, Welch said. He said police were investigating whether the two sets of robbers knew each other.

An estimate of the value of the stolen money and jewelry and a description of the suspects who were still at large were not available late Wednesday.
