Two Calgary men are left reeling after discovering their storage lockers were broken into over the holidays, with thousands of dollars worth of personal items, including prized comic book collections, stolen.
Two Calgary men are hoping to soon get some answers after some of their most prized possessions were stolen from their storage lockers over the holidays. Matt Thomas and Heath McCoy said they were each storing property at separate Sentinel Storage locations in Calgary when they were broken into last year. Thomas — who said he checks in on his locker at least once a month — said someone had broken into his locker by prying the trim off the wall that was holding the lock next to the unit door.
He said he feels terrible. \Inside the locker, Thomas said he stored retired Lego sets, watches, computer monitors and other items. He said his cherished collection of comic books from his childhood is also gone. He estimates the value of what he lost to be about $8,000. Heath McCoy was storing comic books inside a storage unit on Manning Road N.E. He said it was broken into on Dec. 23, and that he believes the thief was in and out very quickly. McCoy said his collection contained rare, irreplaceable issues of Batman and Captain Britain comics that he has valued at around $5,000. \Both men are heartbroken over the loss of their belongings, especially their comic book collections. They hope that the police will be able to find the thief and return their property. Sentinel Storage tells Global News that it is working closely with police on the investigation
