Four robbers snatched two designer handbags from a man and woman while they were waiting in line outside a boutique in Beverly Hills, authorities said Sunday.
Officers were dispatched at about 1:20 p.m. Saturday to the 400 block of North Drive, the Beverly Hills Police Department reported. It was at that location where one of the four suspects pulled out a handgun and a fight occurred between both victims and the suspects, police said.
“During the altercation, the suspects forcibly took two designer handbags — one from each victim — containing cash and cell phones,” according to a police statement. “One cell phone was recovered nearby. The suspects also attempted to steal the male victim’s jewelry but were unsuccessful.”
Both victims were treated at the scene by paramedics and then decided to go to a hospital, in their own vehicle, for further treatment, authorities said.
