A woman stole a man's $25,000 Rolex after he took her back to his hotel room and then hid it in her vagina, prosecutors and NYPD said.
The victim brought 25-year-old Shacarye Tims back to his room at the Holiday Inn at 125 W. 26th St. at about 5:30 a.m. on Oct. 19, after meeting her at a bar, police said.
Once in the room, Tims began complaining that the man's Rolex was scratching her. She eventually convinced him to take it off and put the watch on the nightstand, police said.
Ten minutes later, the man noticed that the Rolex was missing. Tims suggested that it might have fallen behind the nightstand, according to police.
When the man searched for the watch and couldn’t find it, Tims fled the room and tried to leave the hotel, but the man caught up with her in the hotel lobby. When he tried to stop her, Tims hit him over the head several times with a closed fist, according to a criminal complaint from the Manhattan District Attorney's office.
Police later recovered the Rolex from Tims, who had hidden the watch in her "vaginal cavity," according to court documents.
The victim was left with a bruised and swollen face, police said.
"She's presumed innocent until proven guilty," said David Epstein, Tims' attorney. "She continues to plead not guilty."
Holiday Inn declined to comment.
Tims was charged with robbery and grand larceny, according to online court records. She was held on a $10,000 bond and was still at Rikers Island as of Wednesday, records show. She is due back in court on Oct 24. Her lawyer did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Tims was also charged this week in an incident that happened on Sept. 23, when she went to a Midtown hotel room with a man at about 2 a.m. and stole his credit cards while he was sleeping, prosecutors said. She later withdrew $400 from the man's bank account using his PIN, according to court records.
She was charged with grand larceny, identity theft and unlawful possession of personal identification information.
