Silver Lining Opticians
SOHO — It was a shady maneuver.
Three men stole thousands of dollars worth of sunglasses from two SoHo boutiques, grabbing the shades from one store, then quickly heading to the next shop, police said.
First, the men grabbed eight pairs of sunglasses worth a total of $5,385 from designer store Ilori at 138 Spring St. on June 17 at 2 p.m. They quickly took the glasses, which included Chanel brand shades, then fled, police said.
A few minutes later, two of the thieves ran into Silver Lining Opticians, and stole 3 pairs of sunglasses and a pair of glasses worth a total of $2,020, while the third man was outside of the 92 Thompson St. store, police said. All three then ran off, according to the NYPD.
Police are still searching for the shoplifters.
