PHOENIX — Police are investigating after up to $600,000 worth of baseball memorabilia is missing from popular Scottsdale restaurant Don and Charlie's.
According to the Scottsdale Police Department, officers received a burglary call at 2 a.m. Wednesday for the restaurant, which is located on Camelback Road and 75th Street.
When officers arrived, they noticed the front glass had been smashed and 34 Hall of Fame autographed baseballs were missing from the trophy case.
The baseballs are signed by baseball greats including Hank Aaron, Bob Uecker, Yogi Berra, Willie Mays, Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle and Joe DiMaggio to name a few.
In February, KTAR reported that Don and Charlie's will likely be torn down and replaced by a hotel in the next few years. The owner told KTAR that Don and Charlie's would reopen at a smaller location when that happens.
Police do not have any suspect information at the moment.
The Scottsdale Police Department asks anyone with information on the case or any of the listed items to call the police department at 480-312-5000 or Silent Witness at 480-948-6377 to remain anonymous.
