CRIME: Coffee Crooks Working For Chump Change

The most recent splash-and-grab robbery happened early Wednesday at a Wawa convenience store in Magnolia, N.J., police said Wednesday.

Authorities in Delaware, Bucks and Philadelphia counties in Pennsylvania, Camden County, N.J.,coffeecrooks.jpg and Wilmington are all trying to determine whether the cases in the three-week robbery spree are linked or involve copycat bandits.

“We’re not sure if they’re the same people, but I would think there’s some link,” said Philadelphia police Detective Christopher Morton, of the Major Crimes Division. “The question we have is, ‘Why are they doing it?’ If they were getting a lot of money is one thing. But they’re not.”

According to police calculations, the thieves have stolen a total of $1,759.75 from 11 locations. At three locations, they left empty-handed. The amount of money taken from five other locations was not disclosed.

The individual takes ranged from as little as $28.50 to as much as $413, police said.

    equal anything for a dime. people better get ready because it’s only started. everyone is so worried about someone smoking a joint and maybe eating to much
    they don’t grasp the effects of these hard drugs. this stuff is a drug problem for real! as long as pot is gruped in there with people anen’t going to appreaciate the danger. They just think it’s a druggy thing. wait untill their doors get kickied in-they get shot- a 100 year old woman gets beat up. if there ever was a war on drugs, here’s the most dangerous enemy!
