Four Girls Rob Hobokenite's Apartment

Police blotter.

Careful whom you bring home, boys.

A 29-year-old Hoboken man met four girls on the corner of Thirteenth and Washington—after walking out of the Madison Bar and Grill on new year's eve—and started chatting with them, according to a police report. After chatting for a while and exchanging numbers, he invited them back to his downtown Park Avenue apartment, police said.

As he made out with the girl he had given his number to around 1:30 a.m. on Jan. 1, the other three roamed the apartment, police said.

Unbeknownst to the man—who told police he was highly intoxicated that night—the three other women took an iPod, an external hard drive, an iPhone charger, a lose change jar, a pair of silver cufflings, a timex watch, a bottle of cologne as well as house- and mailbox keys from the apartment, according to the report. All the stolen items belonged to the man's roommate who wasn't home at the time, police said.

After about 20 minutes, the girls left, telling the man they were just going for pizza and would be back soon, police said, but the girls never returned.
