Authorities in California find more than 100 boxes of stolen Lego sets in an abandoned van in the Mojave Desert. The sets are identified as McLaren F1 Lego items and are valued at nearly $30,000, according to reporting.
SFGate and the Washington Times both describe the discovery as occurring in a desert area and say the items were left in the vehicle. The reported figures are closely aligned, with SFGate citing 123 boxes and a value “nearly $30,000,” while the Washington Times cites “more than 100” sets and a value “over $28,000.” Both outlets characterize the sets as stolen and recovered from the abandoned van.
