Happens weekly in Battery Park. Catch them on security cameras checking car doors. Probably a good thing that neighbors don't own Chargers or Challengers as there would be a plague of carjackings and thefts.
And all of them do not live anywhere near there. Get ready for the PL.
There's nothing illegal about pulling on door handles, the popo will tell you, but it really does satisfy the elements of Criminal Assault, imho.
Those masked "men" belong in cages.
Are you insane
