CARROLL COUNTY, GA — Police are looking for the Christmas Eve Grinch who broke into a new trading card store in Carroll County.
Open just six weeks, Carrollton trading card store Tag Collects is now dealing with a six-figure loss. Co-owner Kenny McTaggart describes a Christmas Eve burglar throwing a tow hitch ball through the window and making a beeline for the case with the high-end Pokémon cards.
The hooded figure smashing and grabbing his way into Tag Collects on Bankhead Highway was in and out before the alarm sounded.
Co-owner Kenny McTaggart says it’s clear the burglar was no stranger to the store.
The burglar bagged $100-$150K worth of high-end Pokémon cards in boxes and vintage singles.
McTaggart wants the thief held responsible but also has a message for him.
“Please come back, dude,” McTaggart says. “Spend some money this time, instead of taking some.”
