Surveillance footage shows two people knocking over the statue and then a truck coming to pick up the thieves and the stolen statue.

The statue belonged to League 42, a youth baseball league that allows kids to play affordably. Robinson's family gave the league permission to commission the statue, which is part of a pavilion dedicated to the Dodgers legend.
