A 46-year-old Florida man and his 70-year-old mother have been arrested for allegedly stealing more than $2 million worth of toys from 30 Toys R Us stores in Florida.
Michael and Margaret Pollara were arrested on Aug. 9 for grand theft and dealing in stolen property. According to investigators, the pair were involved a scheme called “box stuffing,” when a less-expensive item is removed from a box and replaced with a larger-ticket item. The two would then allegedly place the the items on eBay for sale.
