At about 4 p.m. on Tuesday, July 27, an officer took a report from the woman about an unrelated matter. Police said investigators later discovered that the woman was in possession of a stolen 2021 Ford Transit van.

Authorities said the woman returned to the Yorktown Police Department for an unrelated matter on Thursday, Aug. 12, and she was allegedly still in possession of the stolen van. She was then placed under arrest.

She is set to appear in court on Thursday, Aug. 26.
