New York – The suspects in a daylight robbery in New York City’s Diamond District reportedly were dispatched to their targeted store by a rival jeweler.
The New York Post, citing law-enforcement sources, reported that the two men who held up the Watch Standard Jeweler store on West 47th Street in midtown Manhattan Tuesday afternoon were hired to intimidate store owner Danny Mikhaylov, not rob the place.
“They have a beef over money and jewelry, and the [rival store owner] sends these two guys over there to scare them,” the Post quoted one source as saying.
The paper reported that one of the thieves held Mikhaylov, his sister, father and two others at gunpoint while stuffing $500,000 worth of Rolex, Patek Philippe and other high-end watches and $6,000 cash into a duffel bag before fleeing the scene. More
