Hollywood actor, Ray Buffer, has been accused of theft involving comic books worth hundreds of dollars from a store in San Diego.

The bookstore shared surveillance footage of the alleged incident.

Southern California Comics accused Buffer, known for his roles in popular television series such as “ER,” “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” “CSI: Miami,” “Gilmore Girls,” and “Cold Case,” of taking comics valued at over $600 from the store.

The posted footage on Facebook depicts a man inside the store apparently concealing comics under his shirt.

Southern California Comics owner, Jamie Newbold, informed The Post Sunday that after sharing a photo of an unidentified man on social media to warn other comic book stores, other business owners identified him as Buffer.

Another Los Angeles comic business provided Newbold with footage of a similar apparent theft involving the same individual.

Newbold revealed that the purported crime against his store occurred on Tuesday, October 6, and he promptly filed a police report with San Diego authorities on Thursday.

According to New York Post, at least six to seven comics were reported missing.

On Facebook, Southern California Comics posted, “This is Ray Buffer. Our camera captured him stealing comics by concealing them in his shirt. We discovered the crime and watched the surveillance video until we saw this. We are sending all the info over to the police.”

Another incident involving the same man believed to be Buffer occurred at Metropolis Comics in Los Angeles the prior month.

The footage shows the co-owner, Alania Rice, confronting the man who appears to have comics tucked under his shirt, according to footage posted by Southern California Comics.

The store owner orders him to leave, and as she turns her back, the man can be seen pulling comics from under his shirt and placing them back on a table before walking toward the exit.

The San Diego Police Department confirmed that a police report was filed concerning the theft at Southern California Comics.

No charges against Buffer have been reported.

“We offered him the choice of either returning our property (we know what he took because an earlier part of the video has him holding the books) or we turn it over to the law. He emailed us and claimed we are harassing him,” Southern California Comics said in the Facebook post.
