Police recovered more than $200,000 worth of stolen Lego sets in a bust of a massive theft ring of the popular toy, officials said. A three-month investigation revealed that the owner of a store in Eugene, Oregon — Brick Builders on Willamette Street — was 'knowingly' buying new, unopened Lego sets that had been stolen from other, nearby stores, Springfield police said Tuesday on Facebook.

Suspects told police in interviews that the staff at Brick Builders knew the Lego sets had been stolen recently, according to the police department's Facebook post. Reached by phone Wednesday night, the owner of Brick Builders referred NBC News to his attorney. A message left with the attorney's firm was not immediately returned.
