All I gotta say, Santa knows who’s been naughty or nice. You two Grinches are definitely on the naughty list.

Police said Thursday that they arrested a man suspected of stealing an elderly couple’s car, pawning their motorized scooter and cashing in the Christmas gifts that they had bought for their grandchildren. Fitchburg police said officers arrested Oran Woodfin on suspicion of shoplifting Thursday morning. Authorities said a 90-year-old Madison man parked his car close to the doors of a Target store on Dec. 10, left the car running and went in the entry area to help his 88-year-old wife who has trouble walking. When he went back toward the door, he saw someone moving his car and ran after it, yelling for the thief to stop. Madison police said they believe Woodfin pawned the couple’s motorized scooter and returned all the presents in the car to a Target store in Rock County in exchange for a store credit. – from Channel3Billion

Meanwhile, the Madison Salvation Army Kettle Thief has been caught!

Acting on multiple tips from surveillance photos they circulated, police said that they took Patricia Whitfield, 39, into custody at the Rodeway Inn on East Broadway at about 8:50 a.m. on Thursday. An employee at the hotel said she was not a registered guest and was staying with someone who was. Authorities said that the thief stole three kettles filled with donations since last Wednesday and tried to take three more but was stopped by alert bell ringers and store managers. Officials estimate the thief has already stolen about $500, which would be enough to make the crime a felony. – from Channel3Trillion
