A former Eddie Bauer store employee in South Windsor is in police custody on larceny charges after adding $16,000 to her credit cards from store accounts, police said.
Alejandra Silvia, 30, was working at the store in the Evergreen Walk in South Windsor in February when she did the credit transactions, "causing a $16,000 loss to the retailer," police said.
The Buckland Road store discovered that in an internal investigation and reported it to police.
Police arrested her on Wednesday and charged Silvia with four counts of sixth-degree larceny, 11 counts of fifth-degree larceny and 14 counts of sixth-degree larceny.
The department is holding her in custody on an $8,000 bond until she is arraigned in Manchester Superior Court on Wednesday.
