Nygel Joseph, age 25, of Stamford, was arrested on a warrant on Wednesday, Sept. 22, after he turned himself in to Darien Police.
The incident took place in January when Darien Police responded to 115 Old Kings Hwy N. for a report fraud complaint.
According to Sergeant Dan Skoumbros, of the Darien Police, Joseph visited the store to have his phone repaired and told store employees that a family member would call with the credit card number for payment.
The store told police that the transaction was unauthorized and being disputed, Skoumbros said.
Darien detectives were able to identify Joseph as a suspect from a similar incident in Stamford in February.
Following his arrest, Joseph was charged with:
- Fraud
- Illegal use of a credit card
- Receipt of goods
Joseph was released on a promise to appear.
