Christmas gifts stolen then BP Refinery steps in to help
A Chester job center theft left 50 wrapped Christmas presents for a fatherless family missing. Salvation Army workers, facing a 30 percent drop in gift giving, received a $1,000 boost from BP Oil Refinery Marcus Hook to replace the gifts. Chester and Pennsylvania State Police search for the thief as community donors contribute to The Merry Christmas Fund with published names.
