The Iowa City police have accused an Iowa City woman of using an elderly man’s credit card without authorization.

Kerrie Fraley, 50, 320 S. Dubuque St., Apt. 308, was charged June 27 with unauthorized use of a credit card.

According to a police complaint, the victim is an elderly man whom Fraley helped on occasion in daily living, which caused her to have access to his property.

The man reported Fraley took his bank card and used it several times in Iowa City without authorization. She allegedly admitted to police officials that she did take the card and used it to withdraw money four times in the Iowa City area. The total amount taken was more than $1,000 in 24 hours, the complaint said.

Unauthorized use of a credit card spending less than $10,000 is a Class-D felony.
