NEW YORK — A woman was arrested for her role in an armed robbery at a Gucci store in New York City, in which she and two other robbers made off with $50,000 in merchandise, according to police.
Keirina Boykin was with two other men when they attacked the upscale store in the Meatpacking District around noon on Feb. 18, according to police. Boykin, 24, was outside the store on West 14th Street holding a gun as the two men entered and robbed the store in broad daylight.
Surveillance video shows the sequence of events when two masked suspects entered the store and one of them brandished a gun while telling people inside the store to get on the ground. The pair of thieves can be seen on video leaving with luxury handbags, sunglasses and other items they had in their hands, including luggage.
Police said the robbers fled in a black Honda CRV heading to New Jersey through the Lincoln Tunnel. Detectives had investigated the possibility that the crew could be behind similar robberies in other states, which is what may have led them to Boykin, who was arrested in Prince George’s County, Maryland.
Investigators tracked the vehicle to Maryland, where officers stopped it. Two people, Boykin and another man, were arrested.
She was also wanted after allegedly attacking a pregnant woman in the D.C. area in January, and for her role in an armed robbery at a liquor store in which an employee was hit in the head with a bottle.
The charges against Boykin were not immediately clear, nor was his attorney information.
