A search is underway in the north suburbs for the grinch who took off with 150 toys meant for Catholic Charities’ holiday gift program.  Catholic Charities’ Lake County office had been storing the toys and other gifts in an empty building in Waukegan.  They were intended to be given to families in need this holiday season.  Catholic Charities gave gifts to 15 thousand people last year thanks to its donors and volunteers.
