RAYNHAM \u2014 Raynham Police worked with the Manchester, N.H., Police Department to identify a New York man following an investigation into the fraudulent purchase of five Pok\u00e9mon cards worth $13,400 from a Raynham trading card shop.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, Aug. 5, around 7:37 p.m., Raynham Police responded to a report from a local business that a customer had used a fraudulent credit card to purchase five Pok\u00e9mon cards: a Bubble Mew valued at $3,200, a $1,300 Jolteon V, a $1,450 Shining Mew, a $4,300 Magikarp, and a $1,250 Blastoise.<\/p>\n
Police reviewed video surveillance footage, which provided a description of the suspect, who wore a black hat, a black T-shirt with a dog on it, and a black cross-body bag, and the make, model, and registration of the White Mercedes-Benz he drove away from the store.<\/p>\n
On Aug. 6, a card shop in Manchester, New Hampshire, aware of the other business\u2019s social media post about the fraud, notified Raynham Police that a man fitting the suspect\u2019s description was inside the store attempting to purchase Pok\u00e9mon cards.<\/p>\n
Raynham Police contacted Manchester Police, who stopped and identified the driver as CHENCAI XIE, 41, of FRESH MEADOWS, NEW YORK.<\/p>\n
Raynham Police obtained an arrest warrant in Taunton District Court charging XIE with:<\/p>\n
Credit Card Fraud Over $1,200<\/p>\n
Larceny Over $1,200<\/p>\n
XIE was driving the same Mercedes, which investigators determined was a rental car, and wearing the same clothes as the previous day.<\/p>\n
The stolen Pok\u00e9mon cards have not yet been recovered.<\/p>\n
XIE will be arraigned in Taunton District Court at a later date.<\/p>\n
These are allegations. All suspects are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.<\/p>\n
