According to investigators, Pollard may have been involved with a June robbery in King, North Carolina where thieves made off with nearly $450,000 in engines and caused $14,000 in damage to Buck Racing Engine’s shop.
“The Discovery Channel should have done a little better job checking people out,” shop owner Charlie Buck told the news station. “It’s just hard to believe that somebody like that’s been on TV, and then they break in and steal stuff from you.”
According to the shop, donations for reward money have flooded the shop, and investigators and the shop are offering more than $22,000 for information about the missing engines.
Pollard doesn’t appear on the show’s cast list on Discovery’s website.
“Street Outlaws” isn’t a stranger to trouble with law enforcement. In March, a driver who appeared on the show was arrested and charged with murder for his part in a crash that killed two people in California.
The show, which depicts street racing, is apparently still a thing and probably wishes it hadn’t filmed this scene.
Reps from the Discovery Channel weren’t immediately reached.
