KNX News' Pete Demetriou reported a white Kia sedan was used to ram through security bars and gates of the store, which allowed up to 10 people to run in and grab as much as $25,000 worth of high-end shoes and clothing within a few minutes.

Video from inside the store showed the suspects wore masks and hoodies. It also showed cars in the parking lot that might have been used to leave the area. The video is being analyzed and shared with the LAPD's Organized Retail Theft Task Force to see if any link can be made between this burglary and others.
No arrests were reported.
