Police Recover Two of Three Cars Stolen From Body Fit Valet Service

mercedesThree customers at Body Fit in Scarsdale got more than a workout when they attended classes at the exercise studio on Scarsdale Avenue on Friday morning August 16.  All three left their cars with the valet at the studio who parked them in the lot in front of 858 Scarsdale Avenue where they were parked unlocked with the keys inside. However at 9 am three high-end foreign cars were stolen. Missing were a 2008 Porsche 911, a 2012 Mercedes Benz 350 Series and a 2011 Mercedes Benz C30.

The Scarsdale Police Department's Detective Division investigated several video surveillance recordings, questioned eyewitnesses to the incident, and used regional license plate readers to search for the cars. They are looking for a late model Mercedes Benz GL Series with white Massachusetts license plates that was involved in the incident.

At 11 pm that night Scarsdale Detectives located the 2011 Mercedes Benz in a public parking garage in the scarsdale-police-car200University Heights section of the Bronx. At 12:30 am on August 17 police found another one of the stolen cars in a different public parking garage in the University Heights section of the Bronx. Both cars were searched for forensic evidence and impounded.

Scarsdale Detectives are continuing to investigate the incidents, to search for the remaining stolen car and to identify the individuals responsible for the thefts.
