Thieves are stealing thousands of dollars worth of Pickleball paddles and are accused of reselling the stolen merchandise online.

Speakers Corner found one seller peddling a huge stock of paddles, that Russell said were stolen from his store and others across the GTA.

The paddles are small enough to stuff into bags making them an easy target for thieves.
