After viewing security footage, the owner went to the gas station and realized that not only was their new employee, who was supposed to be working his first solo shift, not there, but merchandise and money had been stolen.

Lottery tickets, 89 boxes of cigarettes, and $17,183 were stolen.

Police shared that in addition to the assorted items and thousands of dollars that were taken, the new employee also took his HR file and the owner can’t remember his name.

Now the police are asking for the public’s help in identifying the man. Hamden police ask anyone with information to contact Officer Jay Bunnell at 203-230-4030.

Wow. I guess you can never be too careful about who you hire. If you recognize this man call Hamden police.

Share this man’s picture, he committed a crime and needs to be caught.
