Police are looking for a person they say robbed a Dollar General store near New Ringgold earlier this month.

Once inside the store, the burglar took out what police call a gift bag. He walked to the cigarette display case behind the counter and used a hammer to smash its glass.

The suspected thief then helped himself to “numerous” packs of Newports and then left the store.

Anyone with information on this suspected burglary is asked to call Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers at 1-800-4PA-TIPS.
