Employee's pay stolen

AUSTINTOWN

A Roth Bros. employee told township police someone rerouted the worker’s direct deposit paycheck and he’s now out $3,500.

Township police investigating Friday learned someone contacted the Crum Road contractor’s payroll manager claiming to be the employee and requested the payroll change, according to a township police report.

That person provided “all the necessary information” to complete the account change, including the employee’s Social Security number, the manager said.
