A man who brought a pair of women back to his hotel room wound up losing his Rolex and his credit cards in the late-night rendezvous, and cops are asking the public for help in finding the pair of thieves.
Police say that on May 9th this year at about 3:30 a.m., a 49-year-old man walked into the Michelangelo Hotel at 152 West 51st Street with a female companion. Shortly after the man and woman walked in, they were joined by another woman, and after even more time went by, the pair of women were seen on surveillance footage leaving the hotel.
Later that morning, the man realized that the pair had made off with his Rolex, and some of his credit cards. Cops say that the credit cards were also used to buy goods at a variety of stores.
One woman the police are looking for is about 5'5", between 130 and 140 pounds, has long hair and was last seen wearing a leather jacket and blue jeans. The other woman is about 5'7", between 140 and 150 pounds and was last seen wearing a black tank top, a black jacket and blue jeans.
