SALINA — Law enforcement authorities in Saline County are investigating a woman in connection with an alleged theft from a Walmart cash register.

Salina Police Captain Mike Sweeney said Amanda Forester, 30, Compagne, N.Y., is alleged to have been part of a group of four people who stole $1,200 from a cash register at the Salina Walmart, 2900 S. Ninth on Dec. 11.

The suspects also allegedly stole money from a register at the Walmart in Hays the same day.

Sweeney said one suspect used a key to open up the register, while the others blocked the view while money was taken.

The four people were caught at the Walmart in Goodland and brought back to Ellis County, where they were charged and bonded out of jail.

Forester was booked into the Saline County jail on a warrant.

Sweeney said warrants have also been issued for the other three people involved in the Salina case.

The incident is unrelated to the Walmart theft earlier this month. The HPD still is seeking information on that incident. Click HERE for more.
