Police say the same man has stolen donations at least twice previously, on Dec. 4 and Dec. 31.

Police describe the burglar as being in his late 30s or early 40s, standing between 5 feet 8 and 5 feet 10 and weighing 160 to 180 pounds. He has brown hair. He was wearing a black coat with light blue on the sleeves and shoulders, black pants, and was carrying a black backpack.
