Authorities reviewed the footage and noticed a pattern of disturbing behavior from the customer. Prior to taking the jar, the suspect can be seen removing receipts from the register. Police believe he was planning on using those receipts to try and get free food from another customer’s order.
“His behavior the whole time was suspicious,” Officer Joseph Slone with the Pikeville Police Department told the news outlet.
“The male took the donation jar, concealed it,” explained Officer Slone. “He noticed that one of the employees was close to him, and he puts it back up on the counter.”
