NEW YORK (1010 WINS/WCBS 880) – Police are searching for several suspects in two Rolex robberies in the West Village, including one in which a man was drugged by women who lured him into a Lamborghini.

At around 12:15 a.m., a 27-year-old man was standing in front of 112 East 11th Street waiting for his Uber when he noticed a yellow Lamborghini parked nearby.

Two women, believed to be in their mid-30s and dressed entirely in black, gestured for him to enter their car. The man entered the backseat of the Lamborghini and was drugged with an unknown substance, according to the police.

The women then took his Rolex Datejust 40 valued at around $18,000 and left him outside his apartment around 4:25 a.m., when he could “barely walk,” the police reported.

The suspects fled westbound on Fulton Street.

The second robbery occurred at 9:30 p.m. in front of an FDNY station near East Houston Street. Two individuals, dressed in all black and ski masks, riding a moped, approached the victim showing a silver gun and demanded "Rolex, Rolex, Rolex."

The 33-year-old victim surrendered his Rolex, valued at $65,000.

The thieves escaped westbound on West Houston Street toward Hudson Street.

No arrests have been made, and the investigation continues.
