US EditionSan Diego Shop Targeted in Pokémon Card Heist, Surveillance Video Shows
Thieves stole about $15,000 in Pokémon merchandise from a family-run store, including 150 cards valued at $10,000, amid a surge in the cards' resale market.
- A burglar targeted a family-owned convenience store in Rolando Village, owner Sergio Sandoval said the break-in has upended his four-year business and was emotionally tough.
- Because of rising resale value, thieves have targeted Pokémon cards; surveillance footage shows the burglar smashed the glass front door then ran directly to the Pokémon section.
- Inventory checks found approximately 150 individual Pokémon cards worth roughly $10,000 and $5,000 in sealed Pokémon products were stolen.
- The boarded-up front door now greets customers, and Sandoval warns it may deter foot traffic while the San Diego Police Department investigates and seeks information.
- Sandoval said he remains hopeful justice will be served and added `Karma eventually catches up to you, and his day will catch up to him`, while Corey Eirich warned some stolen items were rare and irreplaceable.
