EAST HARLEM — A man returned to his car after running errands to find it ransacked and more than $2,300 worth of items missing, the NYPD said.

The 24-year-old victim parked his car near Park and Lexington Avenues near 122nd Street on Jan. 10 around 5:15 p.m. to run an errand, but when he returned two-and-a-half hours later the driver’s side window was busted, police said.

The thief or thieves got away with several of the victim’s credit cards, an iPad, iPhone, Nintendo 3DS, a car TV monitor, an undisclosed amount of cash and a gold-plated teeth grill, he told police.

The victim did not report a suspect description, but police are investigating the crime.
