LOWER EAST SIDE — A thief reached into a Rolls-Royce parked outside The DL bar on Saturday and snatched a woman’s backpack off her lap, taking off with more than $700 worth of stolen goods, police said.
The 54-year-old victim was sitting in the passenger seat of her husband’s white Rolls-Royce, which was double-parked outside the bar at 95 Delancey St. at around 1:25 a.m., when the suspect reached into the open window and snatched the black Tumi bag off her lap, according to authorities.
The backpack contained the victim’s iPhone 6S, credit cards, Persol sunglasses, keys, ID, some cash, and a handicap parking plaque, according to a police report.
The total value of the stolen property is valued at roughly $715, police said.
The victim was unable to provide a description of the suspect, who fled on a bicycle westbound on Delancey Street, against traffic, police said.
Representatives of The DL could not immediately be reached for comment.
