A Long Island man had his Mercedes and his Porsche stolen from him in one night, according to police.

The victim told police that while he was dining at Pearl East Restaurant in Manhasset someone took the keys from the valet station and stole his 2008 Mercedes-Benz.

Police said the victim also stated that inside the stolen Mercedes was a set of keys to a second car, a 2003 Porsche, that was parked in the driveway of his home, detectives said. Police said the victim called home and found out the Porsche had also been stolen.

Police believe the thieves used a GPS in the Mercedes to locate the victim's address and the second car.
