ALLIANCE, Neb. (AP) — A western Nebraska woman has been charged with stealing nearly $12,000 from a youth soccer team in Alliance.
30-year-old Erin Merrill’s case has been bound over to district court. She is facing two counts of felony theft.
Prosecutors say Merrill used the soccer team’s debit card to withdraw $8,180 cash in 39 different transactions between September 2012 and August 2013. They say she also used the team card to make $3,485.04 in purchases.
Merrill remains free on bond. She is scheduled to be arraigned in Box Butte County District Court on June 25 and enter her plea.
