More than 25,000 counterfeit luxury items were found in a warehouse in Arcadia early last month, the Los Angeles county Sheriff’s Department said on Tuesday.
Deputies estimate the items are worth about $10 million and include fake products with brand names like Nike, Adidas and other brands.
Approximately 25,898 items of counterfeit luxury-branded streetwear merchandise were seized, the LASD said.

The investigation began after authorities intercepted a host of knockoffs during an inspection at a port of entry.
The shipment was addressed to the warehouse located on the 11600 block of Goldring Road in the city of Arcadia where the rest of the items were found.
According to LASD, no arrests were made at the time of the search warrant, and the person who owns the business remains outstanding.
The investigation is ongoing.
