(Pittsburgh, PA) A man is charged with stealing more than $100,000 from the Little Sisters of the Poor in Pittsburgh, ordering steaks and seafood that police said he never served to the residents of the nursing home. Pittsburgh police announced yesterday the arrest of Vincent “Gary” Jones after a “lengthy investigation” into purchases that were unauthorized of over $102,000 worth of food for the Little Sisters of the Poor on Benton Avenue in the Brighton Heights neighborhood. Police confirm that Jones, who was an employee, was primarily responsible for ordering food for the nursing home and a look through invoices showed that he ordered items like calamari, crab, lobster, steak tenderloins, swordfish from August of 2023 until he was fired in July of 2025. Investigators state that Jones included expensive steaks and seafood as part of the regular orders of the facility, but he never served that food to residents, and over a period of two years, they reviewed surveillance footage that showed him parking next to the U.S. Food Truck when it arrived for delivery and loading up his car with cases on two occasions. Jones faces charges of felony counts of theft by unlawful taking and receiving stolen property.
