On Friday, April 27 at around noon, three women and one man entered the East Garden City Louis Vuitton, located at the Roosevelt Field Mall on 630 Old County Road, according to Nassau County Police.
They allegedly were holding box cutters, which they used to cut the security wires that were holding purses in place.
Detectives said the group made off with seven handbags, worth approximately $23,000 total.
Then, the thieves fled the mall in a white 2012 Kia Sportage in an unknown direction, officers said.
The incident comes just two days after a group of four – also composed of three women and one man – stole seven handbags from a Manhasset Prada store, less than 10 miles from Friday’s robbery.
