Four Suspects Wanted for Attacking 69-year-old Victim for Rolex

Hollywood:  69-year-old victim is held down by three male suspects who steal Rolex watch and video surveillance captures the terrifying incident.

On October 30, 2014 around 12:45 p.m., the 69-year-old victim parked her vehicle in the rear alley of the 300 block of La Brea Avenue.  A vehicle containing four suspects then parked behind the victim.  As she was exiting her vehicle, three suspects rushed out and surrounded her.  Two suspects held her down while the other suspect used an unknown tool to cut a Rolex watch and gold bracelet from her wrist, which resulted in a laceration.   

The vehicle, described as a mid 2000’s black four door BMW 740IL with paper plates and tinted windows was driven by a fourth suspect and fled northbound from the location.
