Last Wednesday, police in the northern California coastal town of Fortuna received a report of a commercial burglary that occurred in the 1100 block of Main Street. Someone broke in after closing time and police there say over $2,000 in sports cards and memorabilia were taken. The police issued a press release that also included a “Willy Mayes” signed baseball among the missing items. We can only hope for the shop's sake that's a misprint by the cops and not what was actually written on the ball.
If you have any info, call the Fortuna Police Department at (707)725-7550.
