Police: Strippers steal man's car, wallet after going to hotel

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (MyFoxBoston.com) -- Police said a New Hampshire man who took two strippers back to his hotel over the weekend did not have his night end as he may have hoped it would.

Police said on Saturday the 35-year-old New Hampshire man visited a strip club in South Hadley where he picked up two exotic dancers and brought them back to his hotel on Memorial Drive in Chicopee. The two women then stole his wallet and car keys from the hotel room, according to police, and then stole his car, a 2012 black Honda CR-Z with Vermont license plates.

Police in surrounding cities and towns were told to be on the lookout for the car. At 3 a.m. Sunday, a police officer noticed the car driving down Bowdoin St. in Springfield, near Grant and Magazine streets.

Inside the car, Springfield police officers found the victim's wallet and credit card. Joyce Ingram, 21, and Krystal McDonald, 20, both of Springfield, were arrested and charged with larceny of a motor vehicle and larceny of a person. McDonald was also charged with larceny of a motor vehicle.

Both women were arraigned in Springfield District court Monday.
