BENNETT, Co. (KDVR) Video games usually allow people to live out virtual crimes, but the roles were reversed in a major heist of 2,810 Nintendo Switch 2 consoles last week in Arapahoe County, Colorado.

On June 8, deputies were dispatched to a Love’s Truck Stop in Bennett, about an hour outside Denver, after the sheriff’s office said a “high-dollar” cargo heist took place.

The driver of a tractor-trailer that stopped at the truck stop reported he discovered his trailer had been broken into during a pre-trip inspection of his vehicle. Several pallets carrying the new Nintendo Switch 2 console were stolen.

Each console sells for $499, and the total loss is estimated to be over $1.4 million.

The driver’s route began at Nintendo of America in Washington, and he was heading to a GameStop in Grapevine, Texas. He told investigators that he didn’t know exactly what was in the trailer, other than it was games or toys.

Investigators are unsure if the incident occurred in Bennett or any other city where the truck may have stopped.

The sheriff’s office said if the suspect is caught, they will face charges of felony theft valued at $1 million or more and criminal mischief. The Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office has asked anyone who may have information related to the crime to call the Investigations Tipline at 720-874-8477.
