Two men walked into a North Hollywood art gallery Sunday and stole a number of paintings with a combined value of about $1 million, the Los Angeles Police Department said.
The men, who appeared to have a handgun, held up an employee just after he opened the NoHo Gallery on Lankershim Boulevard about 10 a.m., LAPD spokeswoman Karen Smith said.
The employee suffered minor injuries when one man subdued him, she said. The assailants fled with the paintings.
