Struthers man accused of stealing over $800 worth of Pokemon cards from Boardman Target

While any Pokemon collector knows you "gotta catch 'em all," one Struthers man is behind bars for allegedly doing so without paying.

According to a police report from Boardman PD, these thefts occurred in two separate incidents at the same store when 36-year-old Eric Wilson allegedly stole hundreds of dollars worth of Pokemon trading cards.

The first incident occurred back in February when Wilson allegedly walked into Target and loaded a shopping cart with 26 packs of Pokemon and Lankybox trading cards and left the store without paying.

These packs of cards had a combined value of $357.74. Police say store employees recognized Wilson from prior thefts.

About a month later, Wilson allegedly came back to the store and picked out 10 more sets of Pokemon cards with a combined value of $509.90 and once again left with them without paying.

In all, Wilson had allegedly stolen $867.64 worth of cards.

It wasn't until April 1 that Wilson was caught and arrested and charged with theft and child endangering. At this time, it is unclear what led to the child endangering charge.

He was arraigned on these charges on Tuesday and is due back in court April 23.
