WILKES-BARRE, Pa. Police in Wilkes-Barre say the person responsible for Christmas gift thefts all over the city is now in custody.
They posted the face of the accused thief on a holiday Facebook post. He was arrested just after midnight, with help from Santa Claus, on Public Square in Wilkes-Barre. I saw it, said Brenda Sokolowski. I looked out the door, and I saw the Grinch running through the square. The police were chasing him. They caught him, and it was great because they saved Christmas.
