Four Arrested After $200k Worth of Legos Found in Theft Investigation in Phoenix
Police have arrested four people accused of running a scheme to steal
expensive Lego sets from Toys R Us stores around the Valley. Garry Fairbee, 35,
Tarah Dailey, 33, Melissa Dailey, 34 and Troy Koehler, 40 have been arrested.
Melissa and Tarah are cousins. They're each facing one or more of these charges:
Organized retail theft, trafficking in stolen property, fraudulent schemes, and
illegal control of an enterprise. Police were working on the case for more than
four months. Detectives used surveillance video to identify Fairbee and Tarah
Dailey after they allegedly stole high-dollar Lego play sets, worth $99.99 or
more, from various stores and selling them for a profit. They are accused of
removing the theft detection devices from the Lego sets, causing damage to the
packaging. In most incidents, they put the Lego sets in either large gift bags
and then in shopping carts, or inside shopping carts and then covered with the
gift bags. The suspects would then flee the business without setting off the
security alarm. (Source
