PAYSON, Utah (AP) - A 49-year-old Utah woman has been arrested on charges accusing her of embezzling more than $45,000 from a grocery store in Payson.
Kathleen Garner is accused of stealing the money from the Payson Market south of Provo between October 2016 and 2017.
KSL-TV reports she was arrested Thursday and was released from jail on Friday after she posted a $10,000 bond.
Payson Police Sgt. Noemi Sandoval says Garner worked at the market for 12 years as a supervisor and assistant manager.
Sandoval says another manager noticed that expensive refunds were being issued two or three times a week over a period of time.
Investigators say they started investigating Garner after they matched up her time sheets with bank deposits.
It’s not clear if she has a lawyer or will be appointed one at a pending court appearance.
