EL MONTE (CBSLA.com/AP) — Counterfeit sports team jerseys worth an estimated $250,000 have been seized by Los Angeles County sheriff's investigators.

The seizure Thursday followed a month-long investigation that confirmed sales of counterfeit jerseys were occurring throughout the San Gabriel Valley.

A search warrant was served at TNS Tattoo Supply, 9866 Garvey Ave, in El Monte and detectives seized jerseys bearing the logos of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Rams and Angels.

One suspect was detained for questioning.
