Thieves Steal $20,000 Of Designer Goods From Heiress Anne Hearst

BEVERLY HILLS, CA – Heiress Anne Hearst had $20,000 of designer goods stolen from her hotel room after her Louis Vuitton bag was taken from the back of her chair when dining at Matsuhisa. The 61-year-old was eating with Juicy Couture founder Pamela Levy and her husband Jay McInerney when her bag was swiped.

But then it got worse – her purse contained the couple's room key, room number, and hotel name – the Beverly Wilshire – and the criminals went straight to stealing her Louis Vuitton luggage and two pairs of Chanel shoes, according to Daily Mail.

Fortunately, they left behind McInerney’s computer with drafts of a new memoir, a novel, and a project for Amazon he’s been working on, according to Page Six.

“The restaurant thief was lurking around … and grabbed Anne’s bag from the back of her chair. At the time, we didn’t catch it … cops came and we filed a report at the restaurant; their security footage showed a man taking the bag," McInerney told Page Six. "But when we went back to our hotel room … we were cleaned out. The thieves definitely had taste, they only took the good stuff … It didn’t occur to us at the time about the room key being in Anne’s purse, it couldn’t have been worse luck.”

McInerney said that hotel security footage showed two men leaving the room and heading to an elevator with the luggage, according to Page Six. Another police report was filed, Daily Mail reported.
