Then the group went rampaging through the store damaging shelves and merchandise. The shoplifters then ran out of the store and drove off in a white BMW toward Van Cortlandt Avenue East.  




The 33-year-old worker was rushed to Montefiore Medical Center where he was treated for a broken thumb as well as bruises to his head and body. The 49-year-old worker sustained bruises to his body and his head.
