Clean getaway: Police seek Pennsylvania detergent thief

HERSHEY, Pa. – The Pennsylvania State Police are hoping to prevent a detergent thief from making a clean getaway.

Troopers say an unidentified man loaded up his shopping cart with more than a dozen 150-ounce bottles of laundry detergent early Tuesday then left the Giant Food Store in South Hanover Township without paying. Police say the man drove away in a dark grey sport-utility vehicle.

Police say that happened about 3:20 a.m. at the store near Hershey. Police believe the same man stole detergent form the same store on Nov. 3, too.
