Thief Steals Charity Money From Expat Bar

CCTV has captured footage of a man stealing a charity collection tin from Bridges Bar in Riviera Del Sol. The tin was raising money for the animal protection charity PAD, and was swiped during the bar’s monthly charity quiz night. The man waited until the staff were serving customers on the terrace, took the collection tin, finished his coffee and left. The bar owner says he isn’t a regular and hasn’t yet been recognised from the pictures.

The man puts the collection tin into his bag.

It’s not known exactly how much money was in the tin, but it’s estimated to be around €50. One of the bar’s customers has already offered to replace the stolen money. Lisa Emeny is the president of PAD, she said “I cannot believe the level some people will sink to. To steal a charity tin really leaves me speechless. We need every cent we collect in our tins. I hope he is named and shamed and at least people will be aware if he comes into their bar!”
