Regina police have charged two men and are looking for a third after approximately $30,000 worth of trading cards and memorabilia were stolen from a home in the city’s southeast. Officers were called to a residence on the 0 block of Michener Drive around 7:45 p.m. on April 6 for the report of a break and enter and were told that two individuals broke into the home and stole the collection, a Regina police news release said. Officers were able to identify three individuals connected to the incident and executed a search warrant on the 6200 block of Dewdney Avenue on April 11. “Several items were located that were confirmed to be the stolen trading cards,” police said in the release. A second search warrant was executed on May 2 at a residence on the 1400 block of McCarthy Boulevard where officers were again able to identify several items also confirmed to be stolen. As a result, a 42-year-old man and 39-year-old man, both from Regina, have been charged with break and enter and possession of property obtained by crime under $5,000, police said. Officers are still looking for 39-year-old James Smith from Regina who is wanted in connection to the case, police said. A description of Smith was not provided by police.
