All may not be lost for Video Stop owner Joey Le. New Westminster police have seized DVDs and more than 100 exhibits from a New Westminster residence, and a man has been charged after a series of break-ins in the 900 block of 12th Street on Jan. 2. Police said Peter Klaus Hoppe, 45, of New Westminster appeared in court Thursday charged with breaking and entering the Donair Town shop. He was remanded in custody. But Sgt. Chad Johnston said the investigation is ongoing and there may be more charges, such as possession of stolen property, in connection with a handful of break and enters in the block including Video Stop. The store’s inventory of DVDs was taken, along with two computers and some cash. The theft had Le fearing he would have to close the store permanently. Please see UNUSUAL CART LED TO BREAK, A8
