A Gassville woman, 39-year-old Eva Louise York, was arrested by Mountain Home Police Sunday for felony theft by receiving and was booked and released from the Baxter County Jail on a $5,000 bond.
According to an arrest affidavit, in September of last year, a theft report was filed from a victim who said she was in the hospital when someone entered her home and stole several pieces of jewelry.
In a follow-up investigation, in December, the victim identified York and said York had brought back some of the jewelry, but not all of it. She stated York thought the victim was going to die in the hospital so she took the items.
A check with local pawn shops revealed York had sold three pieces of the victim's jewelry at a pawn shop in West Plains.
