Seaport Carjack

A 41-year-old man had his car stolen right as he was getting into it. At 3:30 a.m. on Sunday, July 7, the man was walking to his vehicle after spending the evening at South Street Seaport. As he was about to enter his car, he dropped his keys on the floor of the car, and suddenly an unknown man approached from behind and pulled the driver's shirt over his head, blocking his view. He last saw his sedan driving away westbound on South Street, his cell phone inside the car, preventing him from immediately calling the cops. The stolen sedan was a blue 2003 Mercedes-Benz S Class with NY plates, valued at $12,000.
