London police now believe four men were involved in an attempted jewellery store heist in Lambeth that left one person with minor injuries.
Investigators determined two men, one armed with a hammer, the other with a gun, walked into Bella Jewelry at 2479 Main St. around 3 p.m. on Monday, while two others remained outside. One of the men inside the store began smashing display cases before the owner intervened and all four left empty handed.
One person suffered minor injuries, police said.
