Armed robbers hit NYC Gucci store
The NYPD has released new video of three suspects wanted for stealing over $50K of merchandise from a Gucci store in the Meatpacking District in a brazen, daylight, gunpoint robbery.
NEW YORK - Three armed suspects were caught on daytime surveillance video Monday robbing a NYC Gucci store of $51,000 worth of items and pointing a gun at customers.
The NYPD released the video that shows the robbery just before noon at the Meatpacking District store at 400 West 14th St.
In the video, the suspects – two men and a woman – can be seen, and after entering the store, one of them pulled out a gun. That's when police said customers were ordered to get to the ground.

After taking $51,000 worth of high-end merchandise, police said the woman pulled up to the curb, right near the store entrance, in a black Honda CRV. Once the men were inside, the vehicle sped off down 9th Ave., nearly hitting another vehicle and a person on a bike.
Police said the suspects drove through the Lincoln Tunnel into New Jersey. Their whereabouts after that were unknown.
