HUBBARD, Ohio - An employee of a
Hubbard nursing home faces fifteen criminal charges for allegedly
stealing hundreds of dollars from an 89-year-old resident of that
facility.
Ashley N. Dawson of Boardman
was arraigned Tuesday in Girard Municipal court on one count of
burglary, seven counts of forgery and seven counts of theft by
deception.
According to a police
report, Hubbard City police were called last month by the administrator
of Elmwood Assisted Living who believed one of the residents may be the
victim of a theft.
Detectives were told that five checks belonging to the elderly resident had been taken and cashed.
Police say the total amount of the suspected forged checks amounted to $2,900 dollars.
Investigators compared the signatures on the checks to the signature on a birthday card given to the victim by Dawson.
