Thief steals from hospital's poor box
Healthcare Security Weekly, May 7, 2007
A 46-year-old
Police reviewed a security tape and saw a man using a coat hanger to try to fish money out of the poor box, the newspaper reported. When that didn't work, the man dragged the 30-pound, 3-foot-high box along the floor and out of the camera's view, according to police reports.
When two people walked into the chapel, the man ran out. He returned to the hospital on Monday afternoon, when he was stopped by security guards and later arrested by police and charged with theft.
