The NYPD is looking for a pair of crooks who stole a gaming console from a man in Manhattan.
Police say that at 1:36 p.m. on Aug. 8, a 22-year-old man met up with two unknown men in the vicinity of Broadway and 42nd Street. The victim had previously corresponded with them on Letgo to sell his Xbox.
