Authorities charged a Salisbury woman with taking money from a local restaurant where she worked but added it wasn’t the first time.
Salisbury Police charged Kiara McFadden, 24, of the 700 block of Monroe Street, with misdemeanor larceny and felony larceny by an employee. According to arrest warrants and police officials, McFadden was an employee at IHOP on Bendix Drive and was voiding out cash transactions at the register and pocketing the money.
A warrant said on Sept. 11 she took $69 on two occasions while another warrant said on Monday the woman was accused of taking $10 from someone while working at the restaurant.
Police officials said the restaurant managers believed McFadden had been taking money and were watching her. Authorities said the manager told McFadden to come into the restaurant on Wednesday and that’s when police served the warrant from Sept. 11. She was issued a $4,000 secured bond and has since been released from the Rowan County jail.
McFadden was convicted of two misdemeanor offenses in February 2013 for resist, obstruct, delay an officer and filing a false report to police.
