Horror as Scumbag Steals Charity Donations from Portsmouth Shopfront

A heartless thief was caught red-handed nicking bags of clothes left outside a Portsmouth charity shop last night.

Shameless Theft Outside Fratton Charity

The shocking incident unfolded on Thursday 14th June in Fratton, Portsmouth. A local passersby, who wished to remain anonymous, witnessed the man driving up and grabbing donations just moments after they were dropped off.

“I was absolutely gobsmacked,” they said. “I saw him pull up, pick up bag after bag from the doorstep, shove them in his car, and drive off.”

Donations Meant for Rowan’s Hospice Stolen

The charity shop raises vital funds for nearby Rowan’s Hospice on Purbrook Heath Road. Well-meaning locals regularly donate clothes to support the cause, but this scumbag showed zero respect.

“It’s absolutely deplorable,” the witness added. “Stealing items kindly donated for such a good cause is disgraceful. He’s scum of the earth.”

If in Need, Help Was Available

The witness reckons if the man was struggling, he could have just asked for help. Instead, he chose to pilfer from generous donors.

The charity and public are urging anyone with information to come forward and help catch this lowlife thief.
