A video was posted on Facebook Sunday evening that allegedly shows a couple in a red Chevy Silverado drive off from the Waterfront Mission in Fort Walton Beach with a grandfather clock that they decided to take from the donations bin outside.

In the video, Amanda Davis describes what she witnessed and what is currently taking place:

I’m dropping some stuff off at Waterfront, where I used to work, and you see this lovely red Silverado right here who just pulled right up, picked up a clock…a nice grandfather clock from there…and took it. This is the problem with the donations here. People rummage through them and then they steal things from there.

Davis went on to write a bit more in the video description:

Every time I drive past, there are people rummaging and/or taking things from the donation site at the Fort Walton Beach location. Being a former employee there, I can definitely say that Monday mornings are terrible for the employees there. They spend the majority of Monday morning cleaning up garbage, torn up bags and boxes, wet clothing if it rained over the weekend, and whatever else has been dumped all over by the people who decide they need to steal things from the donation site.

To the couple in the video, You really can’t wait until Monday and offer a donation to purchase the clock you just took home with you?

Waterfront, I think you may need a different plan for donation drop offs when you’re closed. Unfortunately not everyone can drop things off during your donation hours.

Get The Coast has placed a call to the Waterfront Mission and we know that they are aware of the situation. When we know more about this story, we will update accordingly.
