Thieves stole a truck-load of Lego after tying up and gagging the driver, police said.
The gang made off with the toy building bricks after breaking into the truck in the middle of the night. They bound and gagged the driver and bundled him into another vehicle before making off with their loot.
Police say the truck was later found on fire, but the Lego and beauty products which had been inside were gone.
The crooks stole the truck from a rest area on the A14 roadway at Kettering, Northamptonshire, at 4 am Thursday. Police said the driver was "gagged, tied up and forcibly removed."
A spokesman added: "He was transported to Staffordshire where he was abandoned unharmed".
"His lorry was found in Merseyside, damaged by fire.
"A significant quantity of Lego and beauty products were stolen, with a high value."
Northamptonshire Police called for any witnesses or anyone who saw anything suspicious near the truck to get in touch.
