Toys for Tots Donation Bins Emptied by Unknown Suspects

Two Toys for Tots donation bins were emptied by "unknown suspects" last week in Aptos and Santa Cruz, according to the Santa Cruz Sentinel.

At least 100 gifts were lifted from the donation bins on Nov. 24 and Nov. 26, according to the Sentinel reports, adding there are no leads or suspects for police.

The Sentinel also reports it is possible the collection bins were emptied by impostors pretending to be collection drivers, who are generally off-duty firefighters or volunteers with "badges."
