MONROE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — Three women are being charged after police say they were involved in multiple retail thefts across Monroe County costing over $1,300.
According to the Pocono Township Police, the following three women were arrested for allegedly committing retail thefts in Monroe County over the weekend;
We found out that the lady that works at the alcohol section in 300 Lincoln Ave. Giant is missing. She was last seen leaving work 10pm yesterday in an her old Jeep Liberty (olive green color) and has been missing since then. She did not report to work this morning. The workers there already called the hospitals with no luck. Unfortunately, that's all the information I have. I will update this post if I get more info. If anyone notices anything, please call the police. She is 55, short hair, white.
Confirmed with Paradise Twp municipal secretary, DCNR, and the person in charge of gypsy moth spraying...the helicopter activity in our area is due to DCNR spraying for gypsy moths. They use Bacillus Thuringiensis Kurstaki (BTK), a biological pesticide that targets caterpillars in a very particular stage of development. They're spraying trees, not meadows. That was just an FYI.
