"I panicked, I'm not going to lie, I didn't know what was happening, they told us to go to the other side of the store," said Arvin.
"We received reports of people dressed in masks and dark clothing, running into Nordstrom blocking streets with their cars, using crowbars running out with property," said Walnut Creek Police Lieutenant Holley Conners.
Police say those cars, some with license plates covered helped suspects make a fast getaway but not all, three people were arrested.

Wilk says security measures have been increased at Broadway Plaza Shopping Center, with more police and street closures.
"This is obviously a coordinated activity, an organized group of people working together, using social media to communicate with each other," Wilk added.
And in San Francisco's Union Square, luxury retailers like Louis Vuitton were vandalized and looted by groups of people. Walnut Creek Police are now investigating if the crimes are connected.
