EASTHAMPTON — A Montague man who allegedly stole $17,000 from a local McDonald’s restaurant pleaded innocent in Northampton District Court Monday.
Stephen L. Kochan, 41, a former employee of the fast-food restaurant, was arrested and charged with larceny over $250 by a single scheme after he reportedly stole about $1,500 a night in deposits from the 121 Northampton St. McDonald’s in Easthampton, according to court documents.
According to police, after his arrest, Kochan admitted to stealing the money and said he did so to buy scratch tickets.
Judge Richard J. Carey released Kochan on his own recognizance. He is scheduled to reappear in court Aug. 19.
