The Polk County Sheriff's Office obviously does not like thefts. This particular theft is especially bad.
On June 5th, at about 6:45 AM, the man seen here, entered the McDonald's restaurant at 4721 South Florida Avenue in Lakeland and stole money from the donation kiosk.
The donated money was intended to go to the Ronald McDonald House which assists families with sick children.
This was not a one-time crime either. He is suspected in several similar thefts in the Tampa Bay area.
The suspect is a white male, possibly around 40-years old, and he drives a motorcycle.
If you recognize this man, or you have other information that may be helpful to this investigation, please contact Detective Ervin at 863-499-2400 (Case #21-23525).
Or, if you would like to stay anonymous and be eligible for the reward:
