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.
