WASHINGTON (DC News Now) -- Officers have arrested four people in connection to a robbery that took place at a Chanel store in Washington, D.C., on Friday. The Metropolitan Police Department said the suspects entered the store in the CityCenterDC shopping plaza, located in the 900 block of I St. NW, just before 2 p.m. on Friday, April 11. The suspects then sprayed a fire extinguisher as a diversion and put $217,644.50 worth of Chanel merchandise into a large duffle bag before trying to flee, according to police. During the robbery, one of the suspects allegedly assaulted one of the store employees, who is a special police officer. Upon leaving, the suspects reportedly damaged the store's front door before officers caught them, placing them into custody and recovering the stolen goods.
