Lower Macungie Shopping Spree Ends in Arrest
The following information was provided by state police at Fogelsville. It does not indicate a conviction.
A 36-year-old Allentown-area man is accused of setting out on a four-store shopping spree June 17 in Lower Macungie Township. The problem, police say, is he neither won a sweepstakes entitling him to do so nor did he pay for the items.
Instead, police say, they cited Dennis Hartnett for retail theft.
said they responded to the shopping center at 6900 Hamilton Boulevard for a report of retail theft. Harnett was located outside of the stores. He was found to have unpaid merchandise from Kohl's, Famous Footwear, Dollar Tree and The Bon-Ton.
