Two thieves stole nearly $30,000 worth of jewelry from a ritzy store in Manhattan\u2019s Hudson Yards, police said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The duo pulled off the heist when they walked into a jewelry store at 20 Hudson Yards around 5:44 p.m. on Feb. 5, cops said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While one of the crooks chatted up a salesperson to distract them, the other took the chance to reach around, snatch swag priced at $29,550 and sneakily hide it in his jacket, police said.<\/p>\n
