Man Drops Engagement Ring Through Grate While Proposing To Girlfriend

A British man was 'wanted' by police in New York after his proposal to his girlfriend went horribly wrong.

The New York Police Department (NYPD) released footage of a man proposing to his girlfriend moments before dropping the ring down a grate.

All seemed to be going well for the couple as the man knelt down over a grate at one of the city's popular landmarks. But, it all takes a drastic turn for the worst when he drops the diamond ring down a gap in the grates.

The pair both get down on their hands and knees to search for the ring, which we reckon neither of them anticipated is how their engagement would go, but eventually they give up.

But all hope is not lost - now the NYPD is on the lookout for the couple and are calling on the public to help spread the word that they've recovered the ring and have it ready to pick up.

"WANTED for dropping his fiancée's ring in @TimesSquareNYC," they wrote on Twitter. "She said Yes - but he was so excited that he dropped the ring in a grate. Our @NYPDSpecialops officers rescued it & would like to return it to the happy couple. Help us find them? call 800-577-TIPS."

They even followed up with a photo of the ring after it had been recovered and cleaned by police officers.

Thankfully the story has a happy ending, as NYDP managed to track down the happy couple to return the ring and hurrah, she said yes!
