HOBOKEN — A Hoboken man said his brand-new BMW car was broken into earlier this week and only his owner's manual was taken, police said.

Between Monday at 3:30 p.m. and Tuesday at 12:30 p.m., the 14th Street resident discovered that his 2012 red BMW 650I, which was parked at 1401 Hudson St., had its windows open, reports said.

The 48-year-old got into his car to close the windows and realized there was a hole in his driver's side door just below and to the right of the door handle, reports said.

The only item missing from his car was a leather binder containing the owner's manual, reports said.
