Kardashian West assailants still at large after France heist

PARIS (AP) -- French police were still hunting on Tuesday for five people suspected of assaulting Kim Kardashian West in a private Paris residence before robbing her of more than $10 million worth of jewelry.

After forcing their way into the American celebrity's apartment, the robbers held her up at gunpoint and locked her in a bathroom before escaping on bicycles in the early hours of Monday. They stole a jewelry box and a ring.

Kardashian West, who was in the French capital to attend fashion week shows, has since returned to the U.S.

Paris prosecutors say police have yet to identify the suspects and declined to answer whether they had received help from the reality TV star's entourage. Kardashian West's bodyguard wasn't present when the incident happened.
