Chicago Ridge police are looking for leads to find the four people they believe robbed a jewelry store in the mall Sunday afternoon.
Police said it took less than a minute for the men to break a jewelry display case in Kay Jewelers and take about $180,000 worth of jewelry.

Two of the people appeared to act as lookouts, while the other two smashed a display case with a crowbar, the police department reported.
They ran out of the mall and left in a black Chrysler 300, heading east, police said. The car had no front license plate and the rear plate was not visible.
The video is available on the department’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/chicagoridgepolicedept.
Police are asking anyone who saw the men or can identify them to call the investigations division at 708-425-7831.
