Police Identify Suspect in $30,000 Gucci Outlet Heist as Tri-State Search Continues

Investigators say the case points to an organized ring using cross-border getaways.

Overview

  • A crew of three men and one woman smashed display cases at the Woodbury Common Gucci outlet and took more than a dozen handbags worth about $30,000.
  • The thieves sped off in a rented Jeep, which officers later found abandoned near a home in Irvington, New Jersey.
  • Police in Newark pursued the vehicle for 20 to 30 minutes, and officers halted the chase at points for safety as the driver jumped curbs and used sidewalks.
  • All four suspects remain at large, and police across New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania are coordinating the search.
  • Police say they have identified the woman in the crew and obtained warrants, linking her to similar thefts across the region.
