Mag Mile raiders steal 38 handbags from Salvatore Ferragamo, police report says

CWB Chicago reports:
The holidays are just around the corner and it looks like one shoplifting crew is not experiencing supply chain issues. Police are looking for the six-man team that stormed into Salvatore Ferragamo, 645 North Michigan, and stole over $70,000 worth of purses Tuesday afternoon. It’s the latest in a long string of similar organized thefts from high-end retailers in the area. Around 4 p.m., the men stepped out of two vehicles, entered the store, and began collecting handbags from the shelves. They — and 38 of the store’s purses — were gone within minutes, according to a CPD report. Ferragamo’s bags retail for well over $1,000 each.
