A Manitowoc woman has been arrested after she was caught stealing from her employer.
Officers were sent to the Manitowoc Dollar Tree just before 11:00 on Sunday, July 17th after the store’s assistant manager reported an employee had taken $150 from her register.
The store manager and assistant manager told the officers that the woman had worked at the register all day and left without notice.
Her register drawer ended up being short $150, so she was fired.
Fast forward to Friday night (July 22nd) and officers went to the 25-year-old woman’s home and asked her about the missing money.
The woman did not want to talk, so she was taken into custody. She has been charged with Theft by Virtue of Employment, as well as one Misdemeanor and three Felony counts of Bail Jumping.
The woman currently has four open theft cases in Manitowoc County, including one armed robbery case from August 2020.
