NYC real estate agent allegedly gets drunk, steals cab for joy ride

It was one wild night for New York real estate agent Kinga Tabares, police allege.

According to the NYPD, the 27-year-old woman drunkenly stole a taxi and was found vomiting out of the window when she was arrested on Friday.

The New York Post reported that a cab driver picked up Tabares and her friend that evening around midnight. Cab driver Ronald Desir said Tabares “was so drunk, she didn’t know where she was going.”

Tabares also allegedly refused to pay Desir, so he stopped at an NYPD precinct to get help. He left the keys in the car when he went inside the police station.

“When I came back outside, they were taking off,” said Desir.

According to DNAinfo.com, police said they caught up with Tabares several blocks away when she pulled over to vomit out of the window.

Tabares posted on Instagram around four months ago that she began working in New York for Douglas Elliman Real Estate, but her agent profile appears to have been scrubbed from their site.

A spokesperson for the company confirmed to Global News that Tabares is now a “former agent.”  They would not comment further.

When Global News tried to reach Tabares, she declined to comment and hung up. But she told the New York Post that the details regarding her arrest were “completely false.”

Calls to her lawyer were not returned.
