Woman arrested for fraud  

A 39-year-old Hialeah, Florida woman was arrested Thursday for stealing more than $4,400 by forging checks.

Maygret Izquierdo Martinez faces 12 felony fraud and theft charges.

Detectives in Marathon began investigating complaints of checks being intercepted and fraudulently deposited before reaching their intended recipients in November 2022.

The investigation led to Martinez, who confessed to making the illegal deposits.

The investigation is ongoing and additional charges are pending.
