A Dothan resident faces nearly a dozen felony charges in connection with the financial exploitation of a 74-year-old woman.

Dothan Police Lt. Will Glover said police arrested 39-year-old Nancy Denise Wells and charged her with felony second-degree financial exploitation of the elderly and 10 felony counts of fraudulent use of a credit card.

Glover said the victim in all the offenses is a 74-year-old relative of Wells.

“She’s charged with exploitation because she stole approximately $1,000 from the victim by using her credit card approximately 60 times without permission,” Glover said.

Wells was booked into the Houston County Jail on bail totaling $110,000.

According to earlier Dothan Eagle reports, Wells' arrest became the six arrest this year by the Dothan Police Department for financial exploitation of the elderly.
