MOOSIC, LACKAWANN COUNTY -- Police in Lackawanna County are looking for a Salvation Army kettle thief.

Moosic police say a man stole a kettle filled with cash late Saturday afternoon from the Shoppes at Montage.

The bell ringer placed the kettle on a counter at the Christmas Tree Shops during a bathroom break.

That's when a man in the store grabbed the kettle containing more than $200 and took off.
