Police are trying to track down a group of thieves after a smash-and-grab heist at a midtown jewelry store earned them thousands of dollars worth of merchandise, NYPD officials said.
The group shattered the front glass door of Cellini Jewelers on Park Avenue around 3:30 a.m. Saturday morning, leaving a scene of broken glass scattered on the sidewalk outside.
Investigators were still getting a tally of what was taken from the store hours after the burglary, but initial estimates suggest the thieves got away with $300,000 worth of goods.
Officers are looking for a gray Toyota sedan and any surveillance video that may provide a closer look at the brazen suspects.
