Two people were indicted Wednesday for allegedly running a Manhattan cosmetics store that doubled as a fencing operation — and had more than $1 million in stolen goods in storage, according to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office.
Rehana’s Cosmetics, a brick-and-mortar perfume and makeup store at 870 6th Avenue which also ran on online shop, was allegedly a “well-known destination” for pilfered goods snatched up by shoplifters, DA Alvin Bragg said in a Wednesday press release.
When investigators raided the business and two of its Broadway storage units back in January, they found a massive amount of beauty supplies, medicine, vitamins, grooming devices, clothing, handbags, backpacks, kitchenware, appliances, Legos and other toys, coffee machines and vacuums, Bragg’s office said.
