Colton, California police say a $54,000 shipment of toy cars never made it past the rail yard. Officers responding to a reported train burglary around 3 a.m. on October 20 recovered 350 boxes of Hot Wheels cars after a tip sent them to a pickup truck loading merchandise near the tracks.
A 20-year-old driver was arrested at the scene and booked on suspicion of burglary, possession of stolen property, and grand theft. Detectives are still working out whether anyone else was involved in pulling the boxes off the freight cars.
