CATASAUQUA, Pa. \u2013 Two people face charges after more than $2,800 in cash was stolen from a safe at a Lehigh County pub last month.<\/p>\n
Nicole Casey, 32, of Stroudsburg, is charged with burglary, theft by unlawful taking, receiving stolen property, and criminal use of a communication facility, according to court paperwork.<\/p>\n
Court documents said Shaun Smith, 32, is charged with\u00a0burglary, criminal trespass,\u00a0theft by unlawful taking or disposition, receiving stolen property, and criminal use of a communication facility.<\/p>\n
Smith crawled through an unlocked front window at\u00a0Catty Corner Pub & Pie in Catasauqua and stole $2,850 in cash from a safe around 3:45 a.m. on Sept. 12, according to court documents.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In court paperwork, police said Smith presumably entered a passcode to open the safe and take the cash inside.<\/p>\n
A worker at the pub found the undamaged locked safe later that morning and saw that the money was missing, authorities said.<\/p>\n
Around 3:10 a.m. that morning, footage captured a vehicle circling the block around the business,\u00a0according to court paperwork.\u00a0Catty Corner workers recognized the vehicle as belonging to Casey, who was fired from the pub two weeks beforehand, according to\u00a0court documents.<\/p>\n
Jay Cimerol of Catty Corner Pub & Pie in Catasauqua said in a video on Facebook that there was only minor damage to one of the business\u2019s doors.<\/p>\n
He said he shared the update because he wanted to assure residents in the area that their neighborhood is safe.<\/p>\n
He also expressed thanks to the police who investigated the incident and community members who offered their support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CATASAUQUA, Pa. \u2013 Two people face charges after more than $2,800 in cash was stolen from a safe…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":303341,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[1646,153,155,154,8469,124726,433,209],"class_list":["post-303340","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-bethlehem","tag-arrest","tag-bethlehem","tag-bethlehem-headlines","tag-bethlehem-news","tag-catasauqua","tag-catty-corner-pub-pie","tag-lehigh-county","tag-theft"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/303340","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=303340"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/303340\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/303341"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=303340"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=303340"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=303340"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
