CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A Charlotte, N.C., man says 30 pairs of Nike Air Jordan sneakers still in their boxes that he's been collecting since middle school have been heisted.

WCNC-TV (http://bit.ly/A7gumv ) reports that 22-year-old Bryant Toala told police that someone broke into a home Monday night and took the shoes that he says could be worth more than $10,000. The burglars came in through a bedroom window and made off with the boxes that Toala says were hidden.

He says a collection of baseball hats that matched the shoes was also taken.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg police say they have no suspects.
