UPPER WEST SIDE — Police are searching for two men wanted for using a woman's credit card at a local CVS on the same night she discovered her credit cards went missing from a bar a few blocks away, the NYPD said.

The 30-year-old victim left her wallet unattended on a counter at The Dead Poet bar on Amsterdam Avenue on July 9, 2014, and when she went back to get it a little later, it was gone, police said

It wasn't immediately clear when her wallet, which contained credit cards, went missing.

That same day, at about 9 p.m., two men used one of her credit cards at a CVS four blocks north on Amsterdam Avenue at West 86th Street, the NYPD said. Police did not disclose the nature or amount of the charges. 

Police were unable to provide further description of the men or their ages. 

A manager at The Dead Poet declined to comment.
