Steal the wallet, then sell it back?

In Manhattan:
A guy from out of town meets two girls from out of town in a Times Square bar. After spending most of Saturday night together, he wakes up to find his passport and credit cards gone. Bad luck for him, right?
It gets better. The women then call him, and say they will sell his stuff back to him for $2,000. He agrees to meet with them at the same bar, but obviously isn't paying, as he then tries to grab their loot. One of them stomps on the gas, smashing into parked cars, and managing to get arrested in the process.
