Woman faces federal investigation after arrest on identity theft charges
Federal authorities are investigating a Reno woman arrested on identity theft charges after she was stopped driving a stolen rental truck packed with stolen credit cards and checks, the Nevada Highway Patrol reported.
The U.S. Postal Service, Nevada Division of Investigations and NHP are investigating Michelle Anthony, 19, of Reno, said Trooper Chuck Allen, NHP spokesman. The expanded investigation involves out-of-state stolen credit cards and checks.
Anthony was stopped Oct. 25 by a trooper after she failed to stop at a stop sign at Sixth and West streets, Allen said. She had been driving a U-Haul truck with a spray-painted graffiti on its side. Allen said the truck had been stolen from a Reno service center, where it was supposed to be returned earlier that month.
