Overview
- A hooded suspect smashed the Purchase Street door in about 30 seconds just after 2:30 a.m. Tuesday before fleeing with over $113,000 in rare Pokémon cards and sealed booster boxes.
- The missing items include a Neo Revelation Unlimited Booster Box, an Unlimited Green Wings Booster Box and multiple mint-condition, first-edition cards serialized by grading services.
- Store co-owners say the quick, informed raid shows the thief was familiar with their layout and stock locations.
- New Bedford police say the case remains under active investigation more than a week later with no arrests reported.
- Owners have closed the shop through early next week, filed an insurance claim and urged collectors to report any serial-numbered cards matching their inventory.
