This has been going on for more than ten years. That I know of. Not just this summer. Ten years.
Also, Park and other defendants were released with NO BAIL, SAME DAY. Enjoying their years of profits and millions, as they plan their next move. Which they already planned, in case something like this ever happened.
This is a fake bust for headlines.

Authorities in Los Angeles County have cracked a storefront operation trafficking millions of dollars worth of goods allegedly stolen in train and cargo burglaries, officials announced on Aug. 20.
A total of $4.5 million in stolen property—including power tools, appliances, and electric bikes—was recovered on Aug. 14 and Aug. 19 when investigators searched two locations of DJ General Tool and Wire, located in Montebello and Huntington Park.
Several pricey brands were uncovered, including Dyson, Milwaukee, DeWalt, and Makita products. Many of the items were being sold at the stores and online, according to the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD).
LAPD detectives worked with the Union Pacific Police Department and the Los Angeles Port Police during the operation.
Dojoon Park, 41, of Montebello, was arrested on Aug. 14 and booked at the LAPD’s Metropolitan Detention Center on suspicion of receiving stolen property, a felony.
Park was released the same day, in accordance with the county’s zero-bail policy. He is scheduled to appear in court on Sept. 8.
