Canadian Thieves Steal $1 Million Worth Sony PlayStation Goods

Police in Peel Region, west of Toronto, say there’s been a theft of about $1 million worth of Sony PlayStations and other gaming equipment from two transport trailers.

Ontario discovered on Monday that a trailer containing $500,000 worth of Sony goods was stolen. Apparently whatever measures they took to prevent a recurrence were insufficient, because the very next day a second trailer went missing containing even more PS3 and PSP games and hardware. The trailers appeared to have stolen while they were parked and the driver was away. One had a Nebraska license plate, the other was from Ontario.

The victim realized the trailers were missing on Wednesday and they’ve been reported stolen. The theft would result in a shortages at retailers for the coming holiday season.
