Police Report: Sir, Have You No Sense of Decency?

First the tip jar at . Now the donation container for Children's Miracle Network. Even among thieves, it doesn't get much lower than stealing from charity.

Brookfield police were called at 11:15 a.m. Saturday to help search for a man who had just stolen a Children's Miracle Network donation container from the counter at Speedway gas station, 14001 W. Greenfield Ave. in New Berlin on the two cities' border, reports say.

The suspect was described as a white man with a buzz-type haircut and tall, thin build. He had a black backpack, blue T-shirt and black shorts and might have fled on foot. 

Officers searched the area, including other businesses, but found no one.

Brookfield police, however, did locate and issue a citation against a woman they say last month.

Callers said the child was sitting on a kitchen chair placed on the tracks and the woman was taking photos of the child.

CP Rail told police another train would be coming though in about 45 minutes, and when officers got to the scene, they found neither the woman, child or chair. 

Hiding car keys in drunken driving dispute: A woman called police Sunday to say her brother had hidden her car keys in her home to prevent her from driving while intoxicated. But she said she did not have a drinking problem and had a valid driver's license.
