Overview
- The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is probing an August 6 early-morning break-in at One Stop Sales in La Puente that exclusively targeted Labubu collectibles.
- Deputies confirmed suspects used a stolen Toyota Tacoma to flee the scene and later recovered the vehicle while store-posted CCTV shows four masked individuals loading armfuls of dolls.
- Official loss estimates place the stolen inventory’s value at about $7,000, though owner Joanna Avendano says the haul and store damage could total up to $25,000–$30,000.
- No arrests have been made as investigators continue to review evidence and the store appeals for public tips to identify the perpetrators.
- Coventry and Hull trading standards have seized hundreds of counterfeit Labubu dolls this week, prompting Pop Mart and regulators to introduce QR-code and UV-footprint seals for authenticating genuine figures.
