A 'dangerous' man suspected of stealing more than £150,000 worth of designer handbags in a masked raid is wanted by the police.
Christopher Gibbs is believed to have been one of three masked men who burst into the Designer Exchange in Egerton Terrace, Knightsbridge on Saturday (May 24) at 4.50pm.
The 31-year-old, of Paddington, was identified after one of the men's masks slipped as he left the store which sells second-hand handbags by designers including Yves Saint Laurent, Givenchy and Chanel - some worth £17,000 each.
The three men then made off in a dark coloured 4x4 vehicle.
Detective Chief Inspector Rhys Willis, from Kensington and Chelsea Police, said: "Officers executed a number of warrants yesterday (May 29) searching for property and the suspect Christopher Gibbs who is now wanted for this offence.
"Gibbs is a dangerous individual and members of the public are warned not to approach him but to dial 999 if seen. He is believed to be in the Paddington area of London."
Anyone with any information should contact the robbery squad at Kensington and Chelsea on 020 8246 0173 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
