Burgled: Someone robbed the Michael Kors store on Prince the night before last at 5:30am.

A few weeks ago, I walked past the MK store in Soho and the glass door was completely shattered. Replaced with a piece of plywood later that afternoon. Perhaps the first attempt at thievery was thwarted and the thief returned?

Guest #3 back here tonight - the MK store was actually robbed early August 7, according to the Villager. Guess I walked by the aftermath of the crime!
