2M dimes worth $200K stolen from truck parked at Philadelphia Walmart

This heist suspect might be living on borrowed dime.

An estimated 2 million dimes worth hundreds of thousands of dollars were jacked from a trailer in Philadelphia overnight, according to police.

Police made the discovery around 6 a.m. Thursday morning outside of a Walmart in Northeast Philly, where thousands of dimes were littered across the parking lot, WPVI reported.

About $200,000 worth of dimes were taken from the big rig. A total of $750,000 in coins were in the truck, police said.

The truck driver had picked up the dimes from the Philadelphia Mint on Wednesday, but decided to park the truck in the parking lot before going home to get some sleep ahead of his long drive to Florida, WPVI reported.

Philadelphia Police Capt. Jack Ryan said this is a common practice for truck drivers.

When the driver returned to the parking lot Thursday morning, the trailer door was open.

“They were trying to cross-load the dimes into other things. There are dimes all over the parking lot,” Ryan said.

According to police, cargo thefts have been an ongoing issue in the area with all different kinds of items stolen — including TVs, refrigerators and even chicken.

Police are reviewing security cameras from the parking lot to identify a suspect.
