Police on lookout for man accused of stealing Salvation Army coin buckets

Brownsville police are on the lookout for a man
accused of stealing coin buckets from two Salvation
Army collection stands.

Former temporary Salvation Army worker Juan Carlos
Aguilar 23, is accused of taking one bucket from
his work station at the Wal-Mart on Highway 48
and FM. 802 and another from a female coworker at
the Walgreen's on 4490 East 14th St. The criminal
activity allegedly occurred Tuesday at around
7:30 p.m.

Aguilar has been charged with robbery and theft,

According to Lt. Orlando Rodriguez, the female was
working as a bell ringer outside the store when
the suspect approached her.

"She claims that Aguilar confronted her and told
her 'I don't want to struggle' as he took the
bucket with an unspecified amount of money,"
Rodriguez said. "She was afraid for her safety
and claimed that the suspect looked to be under
the influence of some kind of substance."

Rodriguez said Aguilar is considered a dangerous
suspect since he has previous convictions,
including various thefts and ***s and is
believed to have been involved in other
serious offenses.

"It's very unfortunate that greedy people take
advantage of the generosity of people during a
season where the public is inclined to help
those less fortunate," Rodriguez said.

Anyone with information is asked to call
Brownsville Police CrimeStoppers at 546-TIPS.

Sounds like the guy did the community a favor.  Maybe now the bell ringers
won't be blocking the entrance of that particular store.
You can't even go Christmas shopping without those bell ringing bastards
blocking the entrance of a store.  They never park their sorry asses where
the wealthy shop (posh stores) because they know rich ***ers will call the
police and have their sorry ass removed from the premises.  99% of the
wealthy refuse to give a dime for those in need.  It's always left to the
poor and middle class suckers.
     And another thing.....all of these so-called charities take 99% of the
donations to pay the CEOs multi-million dollar salaries and other
administrative costs.  The children see about 1% of the money.  Now they are
harassing customers at the cash register of every local discount store
(where the poor and middle class shop, of course) by asking for donations to
every so-called charity you can think of.  When I get to the cash register,
I tell them that the CEOs and administration are the ones gleaning the
proceeds.  Do you think they'll be asking for the wealthy to chip in at
Beverly Hills Stores or other upscale stores?  Not hardly.  Because they
know the wealthy don't want to be bothered with such tripe.
