QUEENS, NEW YORK — A massive theft ring that hit 128 Home Depot stores across nine states has been busted.
Authorities said they arrested a team of 13 thieves.
They’re accused of stealing more than $2 million in merchandise, including power tools, air conditioners, and household goods over the course of 13-months.
“This crew was amazingly coordinated, disciplined, meticulous and dedicated,” said Melinda Katz, district attorney, Queens, New York.
The stolen items were sold through a storefront or on Facebook Marketplace.
None of the home depots in the Carolinas were hit.
