A New York City woman says she accidently left a bag in the trunk of a taxi containing $35,000 worth of jewelry.
Among the items was a $15,000 engagement ring she had designed herself.
Mariko Spigner told the New York Post she realized she had forgotten the bag as soon as the taxi pulled away from a friend’s apartment Wednesday morning in Brooklyn’s Sunset Park. But it was too late — the cab had sped off.
She says the missing items also included a $2,000 wedding ring, her green card and her Social Security card.
The 42-year-old Spigner is a Japanese citizen.
She filed a report with the Taxi and Limousine Commission, which is investigating. The bag hasn’t been turned in yet.

Uber would be able to track the driver in minutes.
Get with the times.
Why did she put it in the trunk in the first place? Couldn’t it have been right next to her in the taxi? after all it was something important…
