The jar taken on July 18th of this year, contained donations to pay for medical expenses for Christine McGhee a young woman who suffered serious brain injuries after being hit by a pick-up truck at Kutztown University in late 2008.

The 7-11 had surveillance cameras installed and they captured video of the theft. Police distributed the video to local news outlets which broadcast the images of the suspect.

The jar was stolen once before in May of 2010 by two women who were caught shortly after taking the donation jar.

A hearing for Bacchino is scheduled for October 22nd.
