Four suspects were arrested in Westminster on Wednesday after leading authorities on a pursuit following a robbery at the Fashion Island shopping mall in Newport Beach.

The four were identified by police as Dominic Deshaun Burrell, 20 of Lancaster; Brionnah Chanell Riley, 20 of Palmdale and two juveniles who were not identified because of their ages. Riley currently remains in custody on a bail of $100,000, according to jail records. Burrell was released Thursday afternoon after posting bail.

The robbery was reported just after 4 p.m. at the Neiman Marcus store at the mall after seven men entered it and stole unspecified items, according reports from the Newport Beach Police Department and KNBC.
