Six bandits stole over $900 in perfumes from a Union Square Sephora – then attacked a store worker who tried to stop them, cops said.
The gang barged into the store on East 14th Street near University Place at around 3:20 p.m. on March 7, then snatched up $950 in fragrances, according to the NYPD.
Employees intervened in vain, trying to grab the items back from the suspects, authorities said.

A 22-year-old male worker was punched in the face during the fracas, police said.
The thieves got away with the fragrances and the worker was treated for minor injuries.
Police released images of the still-at-large robbers, all of whom appeared to be men in their late teens or 20s.
The stick-up happened the same day that four brazen crooks barged into a Brooklyn Chanel store and stole $5,000 worth of merchandise, cops said.
