Two men in Arizona were accused of taking more than $90,000 in property from a storage facility, including baseball equipment belonging to former Major League Baseball player Daniel Johnson.
According to reports, police found some of the missing belongings at a home connected to the investigation. Some of the items that were taken were things Johnson had collected throughout his professional baseball career. He played for Cleveland, Baltimore, San Francisco and Houston, and his stored belongings included gear from multiple teams. The collection had taken about 10 years to build, and he did not know whether all of it could be replaced.
According to reports, Johnson and his fiancée had moved their belongings into storage while work was being done on their home. Along with the baseball memorabilia, the missing property included clothing, purses and computers. Police identified items such as batting gloves, hats, jackets, shorts, shirts and hoodies among the stolen belongings.
