A Fulton man has been charged with stealing while working at a Jefferson City business.
Harold Edwards, 55, has been charged with one count of felony stealing. His bond was set Tuesday at $25,000.
The thefts at Mr. Convenience on East McCarty Street had been taking place since August, according to a Jefferson City Police Department probable cause statement.
Store security video showed numerous occasions when Edwards would void a sale of merchandise then take cash from a customer. At the end of an evening, Edwards would take cash from the register, walk out of camera view and return shortly afterward. The exact amount of money Edwards is believed to have stolen was not shown in the probable cause statement, but it was believed to be more than $750, which is considered a felony.
When authorities interviewed Edwards, he denied the allegations. Court records show he has multiple past convictions for stealing passing bad checks and forgery.
