NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Two people have been arrested in connection to the armed robbery of Dubai Jewelry on Nolensville Pike last week.

According to the jewelry store owner, the robbers stole nearly $2 million in gold. The owner explained that two robbers entered the store, one of them carrying a bouquet of flowers and pretending to browse. A third suspect then followed, using a screwdriver to jam the door, preventing it from locking. The situation escalated quickly, with employees reportedly being sprayed with mace and threatened at gunpoint.

On Sunday, Metro Police reported that 34-year-old Orlando Valdes Hernandez and 38-year-old Milleni Garcia were arrested by Miami Beach Police.
