Two recent robberies of jewelry salesmen have authorities wondering whether the crimes are related.

Two people robbed a salesman of about $900,000 in diamonds and other merchandise Friday night in his Valley Glen driveway. At least one was reportedly armed with a pistol.

On Wednesday night, another jewelry salesman and his son were robbed in front of their San Dimas home. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Sgt. Charles Jurcak said two people stole jewelry and a computer from the salesman’s vehicle. The robbers, who were carrying what Jurcak said were air pistols, drove away in separate minivans.
