The robbery at a Card Shop in Reno was caught on surveillance video and police are investigating. A thief cut several brick pieces from the building and removed the bars that blocked the rear window, allowing him to enter the store. The thief grabbed a backpack and loaded it with baseball cards. He then ran away, leaving the surveillance camera to capture the suspect. The suspect was wearing a face mask, gloves, and a light-colored hooded sweatshirt. The owner of Home Team Sports Collectibles says about $50,000 in merchandise was stolen by the two people who got inside.
