Wyomissing police investigate $30,000 theft from store

The biggest news in the Borough Blue coverage area is, of course, a fatal shooting in Cumru Township near the Bertolet Fishing Dock in West Reading.

The Reading Eagle has full coverage of that developing story. Meanwhile, let's get back to much less significant misdeeds, like this business owner who discovered he'd been ripped off:

The owner of a business in the Berkshire Mall left his store in the hands of another franchiser/owner for November and December. During those two months she took all of the inventory, withdrew cash from the business' bank account and kept all the profits. The trusting owner estimates he lost about $30,000. He called Wyomissing police Jan. 19 after discovering the loss.
