At 1AM on Sunday Morning, a pair of thieves broke into Pat’s Games, a hobby shop that prides itself as the premiere story for “the premier store for Magic: The Gathering.” The thieves managed to steal a large amount of Magic the Gathering Cards, some which were valued at $5,000 dollars each.
According to the store’s Facebook Page, the thieves were able to break into the story by using a water meter key to rip the front door off, and were able to 200 cards equaling up to $75,000 dollars in less than 20 seconds.
Austin Police are investigating the robbery and have assigned a staff member who is an active player of the card game. Pat’s Games has released security camera footage in hopes of helping the police find the culprits and returning the merchandise.
