Baker allegedly stole two air conditioning units from Hamilton Community Foundation, 319 N. Third St., and three air conditioning units from the United Way of Butler County, 323 N. Third St., sometime after 5 p.m. Tuesday and before 8 a.m. Wednesday.
The thefts of the five air conditioners not only caused discomfort to employees at both non-profits, but a great monetary loss to both organizations, as well, according to police.
“To steal from these benevolent organizations makes this crime even more repugnant,” said Sgt. Michael Waldeck, investigations section supervisor. “Detective Botts worked numerous hours and his work was diligent. I commend him for his efforts.”
