NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Police on Monday evening were looking for a suspect who posed as a construction worker to find his way into an Upper West Side jewelry store, then robbed the store at gunpoint.
As 1010 WINS’ Gary Baumgarten reported, he sign on the door of the More & More Antiques store, at 378 Amsterdam Ave., says “please ring bill.” The security-conscious owner then checks would-be customers out and buzzes them in, or decides not to do so.
