PITTSBURGH (AP) — The former branch manager of a western Pennsylvania credit union is accused of stealing $340,000 and then setting the bank safe on fire to throw off investigators.
A federal grand jury on Wednesday indicted 63-year-old Patty Lynn Mavrakis of Belle Vernon on charges of embezzlement, wire fraud and using a fire to commit a federal felony.
Authorities say Mavrakis was working at the Valley 1st Community Federal Union in September 2016 when the alleged theft occurred.
She's accused of starting the fire and then claiming the blaze had destroyed the missing money.
Mavrakis doesn't have a lawyer listed on the docket.
