Kim Kardashian West was robbed at gunpoint inside a private residence in Paris early Monday, as thieves reportedly disguised as police officers made off with more than $10 million worth of jewelry.

West was unharmed in the late-night intrusion, according to The Associated Press, which cites police and a spokeswoman for the reality TV and social media star. The spokeswoman said Kardashian West was "badly shaken but physically unharmed."

The AP reports that the armed thieves were allowed into the residence by a concierge. "Handcuffed and at gunpoint, he then led them to the starlet's flat," the news service says.

There, they held a gun to Kardashian West's head, Reuters reports, and stole jewelry worth more than $10 million from inside the residence, including a single ring worth $4.5 million. West was left tied up inside a bathroom as the robbers escaped on bicycles.

After the theft, Kanye West, Kardashian West's husband, cut short a performance in New York citing a "family emergency," according toBillboard.

"It's unclear whether the couple's two children, 3-year-old daughter North and 10-month-old son Saint, were with Kardashian West when the robbery happened," the AP reports. "Police said the actress' family was placed under police protection at the George V palace after the incident."

Kardashian West was in town for Paris Fashion Week. She left France on Monday after speaking with investigators, Reuters reports.

 

They stole her underwear too?

 

Who fucking cares?

 

LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE ANOTHER TRUMP VOTER

 

Insurance fraud.

 

...not even, just another shitty attempt to stay "relevant" in the headlines

 

Knowing their MO this is probably a fabrication for attention.

 

Classy broad.

 

SOMEONE ELSE POST THE MEME

 

I read that she claimed she was sleeping only in a robe at the time. That seems so bizarre to me, but maybe rich people have comfy robes for sleeping in, I don't know.

 

Silk bruh

 

Oh okay...

 

I don't particularly care for her or her shenanigans, but don't wanna see this kinda shit happen to anyone...

 

I hope it doesn't turn out that this was a publicity stunt. She has so much security, it surprises me this could happen.

It also surprises me that nothing sexual happened. Sleeping in nothing but a robe? Bound hands?

 

Is that her "robe" under her trench coat? I mean seriously... wtf

 

im confused i guess. i thought you asked about magical robes that were comfortable to sleep in. IMHO silk would fit that bill.

 

No, I was. But I am just postulating that this silk robe might be under her trench coat in the above photo.
