BFM TV, a French outlet spoke with Police sources that said, Her purse, two cell phones and 1,000 euros were also taken among the jewelry that was snatched.

E! News stated that, Kardashian was gagged and bound at her hands and feet, then handcuffed and held at gunpoint.

The American based entertainment television network added that, after the men took off with all of her jewelry, Mrs. West, “broke out of her bindings and (got)… out.”

“She begged for them to let her live and [said] she has babies at home. Then they wrapped her mouth in tape and put her in the bathtub,” a source told E!. “She thought they were for sure going to kill her.”

So the question everyone is left with is, how did they get in?

The French Interior Ministry told CNN, a group of five men gained access after threatening the concierge with a weapon, handcuffed him and forced him to open her private space.

The Paris prosecutor’s office said, two of the men were able to get in and access the star’s temporary home and held a gun to her head.

Now the world is reacting to the mishap.

I'm glad Kim Kardashian is safe and also glad I'm not around people who would act so coldly towards anyone being robbed at gunpoint.

Thankfully, most people showed the better side of humanity by offering nothing but support for someone who just went through a scary ordeal.

Mrs. West was unharmed but Kanye did cut his NYC concert short in reaction to the “family emergency.”
