Kourtney Kardashian arrives in LA surrounded by security after sister Kim was held at gunpoint in Paris

Kourtney Kardashian was surrounded by security guards as she arrived in Los Angeles on Monday, a day after Kim was held at gunpoint in Paris.

The 37-year-old had extra protection with her after the terrifying incident, which saw her sister robbed of millions of dollars worth of jewellery.

Kourtney's burly bodyguards ensured fans and photographers gave the petite star a wide berth while she headed through LAX. 

The mother-of-three looked somber and kept her head down, while covering most of her face with large sunglasses.

Kourtney also wore a baggy white T-shirt with a black coat, leggings and trainers.

The reality star had hurried to see her sister the previous evening after learning of her ordeal. They were at a private dinner together ahead of the incident.

As soon as they heard about the heist, Kourtney and Kendall rushed to the apartment Kim was staying in to be by her side.

Kim fled to New York via private jet after the robbery and was seen reunited with husband Kanye West on Monday.

The rapper was told of the raid halfway through a headline performance at the Meadow Music and Art Festival, New York, and immediately cancelled the set.
