NYC GUCCI STORE ROBBED IN BROAD DAYLIGHT BY BRAZEN GUN-TOTING CREW

By Haley Brown, Amanda Woods and Jorge Fitz-Gibbon

Published Feb. 19, 2024, 6:22 p.m. ET


A gun-toting crew pulled off a brazen broad-daylight heist at a Gucci store in
Lower Manhattan on Monday — forcing the upscale shop to close for the rest of
the day.

The three crooks are still on the loose after speeding away from the scene
following the armed robbery at the 14th Street retailer around 12:10 p.m.,
according to police.

Two men and a woman stormed into the shop, displayed a gun and ordered the
employees to get on the ground while they grabbed merchandise off the shelves,
police said.

They then jumped into a Honda CRV and sped off westbound on 14th Street.

Police, who have not released a description of the culprits, said it is not
immediately clear how much the crooks made off with.

The store closed its doors for the rest of the day after the heist, which left
others in the neighborhood rattled, including both shoppers and retail workers
who say crime in the five boroughs has just gotten out of hand.

“The theft in the industry is worse than it’s ever been,” said Brianne Bailey,
who said she worked in retail for 15 years.

“We already have trouble struggling to retain good talent in retail and now
things like this are going to make it even harder,” she said. “It’s just sad.

“It’s like this is the world we live in, and people have guns and this is what
they do,” she added.

Shopper Amy Jo Aikele called the robbery “a bummer.”

What do you think? Post a comment.

“I don’t know if I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh! I’m concerned,’ because it’s New York
and this stuff happens all the time,” Aikele said. “It just feels like another
day.

“I feel bad for the workers,” she added. “People don’t make like a ton of money
that are working at these stores, and now to deal with this? They’re just trying
to make money and to their job, and I don’t think anyone should have to be
afraid to go in to work.”
