A group of Grinches stole Christmas from hundreds of less-fortunate children in Washington State on Tuesday, reportedly making off with scores of bikes and helmets.
Waste management company Waste Connections of Washington had raised more than $55,000 to buy about 700 new bikes and helmets for children in Clark County this Christmas.
The article goes on to state the following:
The bikes were going to be assembled this Saturday — until organizers discovered this week that someone broke into the trailer holding the bikes and stole about 200 of them.
“Heartbreaking to be honest,” said Waste Connections of Washington’s Cyndi Holloway about her feelings when she found out about the theft, FOX12 Oregon reported. “It was heartbreaking, to say the least. I think it is more heartbreaking that you are taking from the kids.”
200 bikes and helmets intended for Clark County kids were stolen early this morning from a locked trailer parked in the back of a Vancouver Walmart.

Someone had to know about it. Doesn’t Walmart have camera’s? Wasn’t the trailer locked with the right lock?That much involved alot people had to be involved.

Not suprising… Walmart stopped year round layaway because of internal theft.

It was obviously an inside job. Who else would know what was in the trailer and then have the means to carry off 200 bikes? They were schooled and ready.
