Cookie monster: Thief takes cash box at Girl Scout sale

A thief in New Hampshire apparently had a craving for cash, not cookies.

Rochester police say they are looking for a man who stole a cash box from Girl Scouts selling cookies outside a local drug store.

Police say the theft occurred Saturday evening during a cookie sales event outside Walgreen's on South Main Street.

WMUR-TV reports that a man wearing a black winter hat and New England Patriots jacket swiped the cash box and dashed into a car with New Jersey licence plates and two other people inside.

Police say it's unclear how much money was stolen.
