It took just 45 seconds for burglars to steal $74,350 worth of graded comics from CaptCan Comics in Brantford, Ontario, Canada. According to a post on the store’s Facebook page, the break-in occurred at about 12:45 a.m. on January 9. At least two people used a saw to get through the front door of the store, grabbed the comics, and left in a vehicle that had no visible license plate. “No one was here, and we are all physically okay – we just need a new door!” the owners posted on Facebook. The store reopened on January 11.
Brantford is located about 60 miles from Toronto. Local police are investigating the theft.
