Camille Anderson, an actress and model known as the host of the “Selling Mega Mansions” reality television series, was assaulted and robbed on Aug. 16 while walking near Cañon Drive and South Santa Monica Boulevard in Beverly Hills.

The robbery took place at approximately 9 p.m. as Anderson was walking to a restaurant with a friend, she said.

“I was thrown to the ground very forcefully, like body slammed into the ground,” Anderson said in a social media post. She said two men attacked her and stole her Yves Saint Laurent purse before fleeing in a vehicle.

Anderson said bystanders called 911 and the BHPD responded immediately. She said officers took a report and informed her within minutes that the suspects were caught.

“The Beverly Hills Police Department did a phenomenal job. They were super fast acting,” Anderson said. “They deployed everyone available. They found them quickly. It seemed like literally within 10 minutes.”

BHPD Lt. Kevin Orth confirmed that the department responded to a report of a robbery in the area at approximately 9:08 p.m. on Aug. 16.

Three suspects were arrested on robbery and conspiracy charges. The BHPD identified the suspects as Razmik Papikyan, 25, Vahagn Grigoryan, 45, and Vlad Oganisyan, 23.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office filed felony robbery charges against Grigoryan on Aug. 19. According to the D.A.’s office, Grigoryan posted $100,000 bail and is not in custody.

His arraignment is scheduled for Sept. 8.

“The cases against Razmik Papikyan and Vlad Oganisyan were sent back to law enforcement for further investigation,” a D.A. spokesperson said.

Anderson believes she was targeted because of her designer purse and jewelry, and cautioned others not to wear luxury accessories while walking.

“I just want to get this message out there to take safety so seriously in Los Angeles,” she said. “It’s a really big problem. I’ve now been mugged in Beverly Hills, I can say. That’s so sad. I’ve been here for a long time in this city. I love it so much, and it’s just really changed.”
