Wawa Thief Rips Off Stores 50 Times Throughout NJ, PA: Cops

A notorious thief has now ripped off Wawa stores throughout New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland 40 to 50 times, police said.

Apparently, her favorite item is coffee.

Wawa analysts estimate that approximately 40-50 thefts have been committed by the same woman in recent months, totaling more than $3,000 to date.

The West Goshen Township, Pennsylvania, Police Department sent out an alert Wednesday, saying it is investigating the numerous thefts of bagged coffee from Wawa convenience stores.

Wawa believes the thefts began in early 2016 and are "ongoing," police said.

The woman will walk into a store and steal numerous bags of coffee from the coffee island. She will then drive a short distance and return them to another store for cash.

In several of the thefts in March and April, the woman is wearing “scrubs,” and it is possible she is a traveling health care worker.

Store surveillance footage has captured at least two different vehicles being operated by the female: a silver, smaller sedan and a maroon sport utility vehicle.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact the West Goshen Township Police Department at 610-696-7400.
