Flood of Donations Arrives After Robbery at Animal Rescue League of NH
A robbery that took place over the weekend left the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire in dire need of help and YOU stepped up to the plate...BIG TIME!
Police say a thief made off with some 500 pounds of pet food and 15 pounds of dog treats from the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire in Bedford over the weekend.
The theft happened sometime Saturday night. Surveillance images show a male dressed in a hoodie making several passes carrying out the pet food. He cleaned out their supply of food that had been donated for the animals at the shelter.
The caring people at the Animal Rescue League asked for donations to help them through this difficult time and not surprisingly, New Hampshire stepped up to the plate.
