The robbery took place around 8:30 p.m. Monday at the Verizon Wireless store on Route 73.
Voorhees police say four armed suspects tied up the employees inside the store and got away with an estimated $40,000 worth of stolen items.
According to the Pennsylvania State Police, one of the stolen devices had a tracker which helped authorities follow the suspects' car, a sedan with Florida plates.
The suspects made their way into Philadelphia where a police chase ensued.
Neighbors in Northern Liberties were told to stay in their homes as police searched for the suspects.
Philadelphia police raised their helicopter, using infrared to help follow the suspects.

The suspects are currently detained in Philadelphia and awaiting extradition to New Jersey.
