HUMBOLDT — A donation box in support of WE Day was stolen from a convenience store on the 700 block of Humboldt’s Main Street.

Security camera video shows a woman tucking the donation box under her shirt prior to leaving the store on Dec. 8 at approximately 6:30 p.m.

Employees say that they usually receive between $60 to 100 per month when the donation box is emptied.

The woman is approximately 5’7”, 160 to 190 pounds, black shoulder length hair tied in a ponytail, thin eyebrows, and was wearing a red Toronto Raptors hooded sweatshirt at the time.

She was accompanied by a youth wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt and camo T-shirt. Police do not believe the youth had direct involvement in the theft. The suspect and youth left the store in a black Dodge Journey SUV.

Those with any information are asked to call the Humboldt RCMP at 306-365-1370 or Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
