According to a criminal complaint, on June 9, 2017, a Marienville woman reported to Marienville-based State Police that a total of $742.22 had been unlawfully debited from her banking account with at least four unlawful transactions occurring at different Pennsylvania locations.

On June 9, 2017, Trooper Smith, of PSP Marienville, contacted a Sheetz loss investigation representative and requested any information pertaining to a transaction from a Sheetz location in Sarver, Pa.
