A North Platte woman was jailed on a felony theft charge after she was accused of running a credit card scheme at the Cedar Bowl in North Platte.

According to Investigator John Deal, North Platte Police started an investigation at the Cedar Bowl in regards to some suspicious credit card transactions.

Management at the Cedar Bowl told police that they were getting disputes from credit card companies advising that their customers were refuting charges made at the business.  The refuted transactions took place over a period of months and totaled around $1,500.

The business suspected that an employee, Alana Vieyra, was swiping her own credit cards at the business then refuting the charges with the credit card company.

Deal said, following an investigation, officers determined that there was probable cause to arrest Vieyra for felony theft by deception.

She was jailed at the Lincoln County Detention Center.
