MELBOURNE, Fla. -- Melbourne police are investigating a report of a stolen tractor-trailer that apparently was transporting 28 pallets of Sony PlayStation entertainment systems.

Melbourne police Sgt. Ray Desmarais told Local 6 News partner Florida Today that the driver reported the incident just before 8 a.m. Monday.

The driver told officers he stopped in Melbourne on Sunday night and didn't know the truck was stolen until he awoke Monday morning.

The driver said he called his company and was told the rig's onboard GPS system last plotted the vehicle's position about 8 p.m. Sunday at Loxahatchee near West Palm Beach. Officers speculate the GPS system has since been disabled.

The royal blue truck is owned by Brian Kurtz Trucking and has Ontario license plates, Desmarais said.

Melbourne police have notified West Palm Beach police.

Stolen PlayStation 3 Games Valued at $1.1 Million Recovered by Police, Stolen Again

British police recovered a truck full of stolen PlayStation 3 games valued at 600,000 pounds (US $1.1M), only to see the truck driven off once again by vandals. The vehicle was found days later missing seven pallets worth of PS3 games, including 16,000 copies of Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway, according to The Sun.
The original theft occurred in Northampton as the truck's driver "rested." After the games were shifted to another truck, cops noticed the vehicle's fake plates and recaptured the games, driving them to a not-so-secure police depot. Crooks then broke into the depot, driving the truck off before it could be checked for fingerprints or DNA.
"We are pursuing a number of lines of enquiry, including eBay transactions where a number of the games have been potentially identified as being advertised for sale," said a police spokesperson. "Arrests have already been made in respect of this."
