Bellarine police have charged a man following the alleged theft of a charity tin at a licensed venue in Leopold on Tuesday 11 November.
It is alleged two men attended the pokies area of the Kensington Road venue about 3.30pm and allegedly cut the tie of the breast cancer charity tin and removed it.
The tin contained over $150 in charitable donations.
A 22-year-old man has since been charged with theft and bailed to appear at Geelong Magistrates' Court on 3 December.
Police continue to investigate and are appealing for the public's help to identify the second male.
Investigators have released images of a man that may be able to assist with their enquiries.
