Kim Kardashian tied up and held at gunpoint, as $14 million worth of jewellery stolen in Paris attack

KIM Kardashian West has fled Paris after being bound and robbed with a gun to her temple by five men dressed as police in Paris.

The reality star, 35, who has been attending Paris Fashion Week alongside mother Kris Jenner and sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner, was unharmed during the terrifying incident but was said to be “badly shaken”.

She had a gun held to her temple while tied up in the bathroom of her luxury accommodation by five men wearing ski masks and police clothing, local media reports.

iTELE television said the star was bound with packing tape while the concierge was found with his hands and feet tied in the staircase.

Around $14 million worth of jewellery was stolen in the robbery that happened around 3am local time, police confirmed. One of the objects taken is reported to be a ring worth nearly $6 million prompting fears it could be her engagement ring, shown below in an Instagram post from earlier in the week.

“The loss amounts to several million euros, mostly jewellery. The total amount is still being evaluated,” the police said.

On Monday, Kardashian West was pictured leaving from Le Bourget airport on the outskirts of the French capital after undergoing police questioning.

Dressed in black with a hood covering her face, she boarded a private jet with security guard Pascal Duvier and her personal assistant.

 

 

 

 

A spokesman for France’s Interior Ministry told CNN the building concierge was threatened, handcuffed and forced to open the luxury apartment where Kardashian West was staying.

She was locked in the bathroom while the two men stole phones and jewels worth millions before escaping on bikes.

TMZ reports Kardashain begged for her life and told the attackers she had “babies at home” during what was the “worst moment of her life”.

Spokeswoman Ina Treciokas said: “Kim Kardashian West was held up at gunpoint inside her Paris hotel room this evening, by two armed masked men dressed as police officers. She is badly shaken but physically unharmed.”
Kardashian West’s half-sister Kendall Jenner and a friend, Jasmine Sanders, were seen leaving the apartment under police protection. Police were also pictured removing bags of evidence.
