A 46-year-old man was arrested for allegedly stealing over $18,000 in LEGO sets from Target stores, linked to 41 theft incidents over one year.
San Jose Police began investigating in August, leading to multiple charges of grand theft and attempted grand theft against the suspect after his arrest on Nov. 14.
San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan commented, "Four retail thefts is too many; over 40 is ludicrous," appreciating law enforcement's efforts to combat organized retail theft.
The investigation was supported by a grant from the California Board of State and Community Corrections, highlighting community and law enforcement collaboration.
