I was there too during the confiscation; we attempted to retrieve the properties from the outside stairwell they were dumped down, but were told to stay back. Ironically, other 'Media Monopoly' properties were also dumped down another outside stairwell not 10 feet from the first one; nobody attempted to retrieve those, though, and of this writing they remain down there.

However, the 'Media Monopoly' cards *outside* the police cordon remain untouched. See them while you can!
