It happened twice in the same day: Hackettstown police were called to a local Wawa, and both times charged employees with stealing money from the convenience store.

The first call on Saturday came at 8:20 a.m. from the Mountain Avenue Wawa, according to a police news release on Monday. Nineteen-year-old Donnell Gatling Jr., of Brooklyn, New York, was charged with fourth-degree theft for allegedly stealing $228 between Jan. 20 and 21.

The second call from the same store came at 3:13 p.m. That time, police said, 20-year-old Michael Cavaliere, of Belvidere, was charged with third-degree theft for stealing $1,130 between Jan. 10 and 20.

Both men were released pending court appearances.
