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.
