Police are investigating after someone broke into a trailer containing hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of dimes in Northeast Philadelphia.
The discovery was made around 6 a.m. Thursday in a Walmart parking lot on the 4300 block of Byberry Road.
Police on the scene originally said an estimated one million dimes, worth $100,000, were stolen. But, as reported by WPVI, that has now increased to two million and $200,000.
A total of $750,000 worth of dimes were in the truck, police said.
Dimes were found scattered from the Walmart parking lot to Woodhaven Road.
WPVI reported that the truck driver picked up the dimes from the Philadelphia Mint on Wednesday, but then went home to get some sleep before a long drive to Florida.
So, the truck driver parked the big rig in the Walmart parking lot.
