SEBASTIAN COUNTY, Ark. — Deputies with the Sebastian County Sheriff's Office (SCSO) are searching for a suspect they believe broke into a vehicle, stole items and forged checks.
According to the sheriff's office, on Aug. 11, 2020, deputies took a report from a woman who said she returned to her vehicle parked at the Choctaw Casino to find that someone had stolen her purse from her vehicle.
Among the items taken were $7,000 in cash, an iPhone, debit and credit cards, some prescription drugs and checks.
Several days later the victim discovered that someone with her ID had cashed a check for $1,000 at a bank in Fort Smith.
