According to Sports Card Portal , Scott Meherg, the man responsible for the burglary of Elite Sports Cards (now in its 31st year of business), has been caught and charged. 5 of the cards were recovered, but over 100 cards were stolen, with a claimed value of over $100,000.
Among the graded cards that were recovered are 1951 & 1952 Bowman cards of Mickey Mantle, a 1933 Goudey Babe Ruth, a 1951 Bowman Yogi Berra and a 2000 Upper Deck Legends Jim Brown autograph card.
Meherg only received a $1,000 bond for his burglary, but is still held in the jail due to outstanding warrants out of Indiana.
