More than $30,000 worth of flat-screen TVs and DVD players were stolen last weekend from 50 to 60 trailers and recreational vehicles for sale at a business on N.M. 14, according to a police report and an employee.

The thieves apparently parked a vehicle along Interstate 25 and walked onto the Traveltown Santa Fe property, said Wayne Martin, Traveltown general manager. Investigators from the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Department followed a set of shoe prints in the mud that led to the northern edge of the property along the Interstate, the report says.

There, along the property-line fence, investigators discovered several DVD players and two mattress covers, the report says. Martin said Monday that it appeared the thieves used the mattress covers — taken from one of the RVs — to haul their loot to the fence line and load it into a waiting car.

"More than likely they had so much (stuff), they couldn't take it all," Martin said.

The thieves hit the business between 5 p.m. Friday and 8 a.m. Saturday, and broke the locks on between 50 and 60 travel trailers, motor homes and other recreational vehicles, Martin said. They stole 36 flat-screen TVs, more than 50 DVD players and an undetermined number of satellite radio receivers that had been installed in the vehicles. The electronics were worth a total of at least $30,000, he said.

The business was last burglarized in 1999, when thieves stole tires from conversion vans, Martin said. "But that was nothing like this," he said.

The business features a 10,000-square-foot building, though many of its 300 or so vehicles are parked outside, Martin said. The business is now talking about enacting stronger security measures, he said.
