Police Take 878 Counterfeit DVDs From SLP Man
St. Paul Police say he was selling them at a bus stop.

A 44-year old St. Louis Park man is now 878 DVDs the poorer after officers with the St. Paul Police Department stopped him Wednesday evening, the Pioneer Press reported.
Police say the man was walking with an unzipped rolling suitcase and a second bag at the SuperAmerica at 296 East Seventh Street, stopping people going into the gas station and offering the DVDs for sale. The DVDs were counterfeit, the Pioneer Press reported, and included several movies not yet available on DVD.
The man told police he was transporting his personal movie collection, but police were unconvinced and seized the discs as evidence.
