Stealing 400,000 quarters isn’t easy

Gary Stone Jr. was the head of the New Castle, Pennsylvania parking authority.

He has been accused of stealing more than $100,000 from parking meters.

County officials say the 33-year-old New Castle resident reported that the meters collected $342 for all of 2006 and 2007.

When police took over the meter collections for the first time last year, they took in more than $54,000.

Stone has been arraigned on theft charges.
