EXETER TWP., Pa. - Lurking around the trash cans of Exeter Township, police said, was a real-life Grinch. Unfortunately, that trash man or whoever provides that service won t get that tip this year, said Sgt. Sean Fullerton, Exeter Township Police Department.
The police said they believe that Grinch stole a Christmas tip that a homeowner generously left for a sanitation worker. An envelope with money taped to the top of an A-J Blosenski trash can was swiped during the day Tuesday in front of a house on Steeple Chase Drive. This was maybe a small tip meant to go to a hard worker during this COVID-19 Christmas season, said Fullerton. To take a few bucks off of a person who s actually working, trying to provide a service to the rest of the community, it stings a little bit.
