Detectives from the Polk County Sheriff’s Office recently made an arrest following the investigation of two retail thefts from the Target store at Posner Park in Davenport.
The first theft occurred on July 12th and the second occurred two days later on July 14th.
The suspect had managed to swipe about nearly $500 worth of Pokemon cards on his first visit, and about $300 worth of Pokemon cards on his second go round. If you’ve ever purchased Pokemon cards for your child, you know that it doesn’t take many packs of cards to amount to those totals—they ain’t cheap.
On Monday, July 17th, the PCSO detective investigating this case located the suspect at his Davenport residence. His name is James Lebron Cordell II.
Some of the Pokemon cards were recovered at James’ residence, but he said he had thrown out the ones he didn’t want, so the detective wasn’t able to “catch ’em all.”
James Lebron was arrested and his talents were taken to the PCSO Sheriff’s Processing Center to be charged with Grand Theft and Tampering with Evidence.
