ATLANTA — A search in underway and investigators are requesting the public's assistance in identifying two robbery suspects caught on video at an upscale hotel in Buckhead.
The incident happened around 3:20 a.m. Friday at the St. Regis Hotel on West Paces Ferry Road NW. It's considered one of the fanciest hotels in the area.
Police said the victim, a 40-year-old man from Massachusetts, left the hotel bar by himself. But hours later, surveillance video shows one of the women he met at the bar get into an elevator with another man dressed in a gray hooded sweatshirt.
The pair headed to a top floor, and once they get off, surveillance shows them walking toward the victim's room after the woman got his room number.

"He received a knock at he door and one of the females he met at the bar entered the room along with an unidentified male and they proceeded to rob him for his AP (Audemars Piguet) watch that's worth $25,000 as well as his money," Lt. P. Spann, of the Atlanta Police Department.
From there, security cameras show the robbers escaping through a back door.
Police said it is clear the woman knew exactly what she was doing.
If you recognize the two suspects, police are asking you to call Crime Stoppers at 404- 577-TIPS.
