Oh No! Mario & Luigi Wanted For Assaulting NY Cabbie

With New Super Mario Bros. Wii hitting this weekend, you’d think the bros would be on their best behaviour. But cops are on the lookout for Mario and Luigi following an assault on a New York cabbie.

Granted these may be Mario and Luigi lookalikes, given that the robbery and beatdown took place on Halloween night at a Great Kills, NY gas station, not in some Mushroom Kingdom borough. According to police reports, the dressed up duo assaulted and robbed the 48-year-old taxi driver after an altercation inside the cab.

A third man dressed in a tuxedo, who we’ll presume was Toad in formal attire, is also being sought.
