A ‘Pokemon’-brand card alleged to have been stolen at Warilla in March has been located, as detectives continue to investigate the alleged assault.
Police were told a 38-year-old man had arranged to sell rare collectable cards in a carpark at the intersection of Lake Entrance Road and Shellharbour Road, Warilla, about 10:45pm on Friday 28 March 2025.
The seller told police he was assaulted by a man purporting to be the buyer, before a card – which detectives have been told is worth more than $8000 – was stolen.
Police would still like to speak to the driver of a car seen in the vicinity of the incident, it’s described as a red 2023-model Ford Mustang with grey stripes, and police believe the driver may be able to assist with inquiries.
Anyone with information should contact Lake Illawarra Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 00.
