Apparent Camp Day coin thief in jail
A 23-year-old Kelowna man is in custody, charged with theft after allegedly stealing a Tim Hortons' Camp Day coin box earlier this week.
At about 10:30 a.m. Monday Kelowna RCMP received a report of theft from the Tim Hortons in the Orchard Park Mall.
Apparently at about 5 a.m. that morning, a man and a woman entered the coffee shop and, while ordering food, the man cut the security cable from the Camp Day charity coin box.
He concealed the coin box and left the scene on foot.
Video evidence revealed a suspect who was later identified and arrested for the offence.
Christopher David Katona has been charged with Theft Under $5,000 and remains in custody.
He is scheduled to appear in court November 6.
