The criminal complaint states that the suspects were seen in other locations in eastern Iowa using the victim’s stolen credit cards.
A warrant was issued June 25th for Short’s arrest; she was served on Tuesday and charged with Unauthorized Use of a Credit Card totaling $1500 or more, a Class D Felony punishable by a maximum five years in prison.
Short was released on her own recognizance pending arraignment.
