The Mahoning County grand jury has indicted four Michigan residents in a scheme that police said involved stolen credit information.

Indicted were Quintez T. Salter, 22, of Farmington, Mich.; Brittany L. Winton, 21, of Clinton Township, Mich.; Christopher Hollingsworth, 35, of Detroit; and Chauncey E. Peteet III, 22, of Oak Park, Mich.

All are charged in the indictment with engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity, possessing criminal tools, telecommunications fraud and two counts of theft.

Police found gift cards and a magnetic-strip-card reader and writer in a room at the Red Roof Inn in Boardman in January.

The suspects each had several credit cards in their possession and are accused of obtaining stolen credit-card account information and using a magnetic-reader device to put the stolen information on a credit card bearing one of their names.
