Police arrested a Vancouver woman in connection with a string of thefts from elderly residents.
Christina L. Higdon, 40, was arrested Tuesday after a Vancouver Police Department sergeant recognized her as a possible suspect.
After she was taken into custody and interviewed, she was booked into the Clark County Jail on suspicion of three counts of third-degree theft, possession of methamphetamine, two outstanding felony warrants and two misdemeanor warrants.
In the past month and a half, a woman would allegedly knock on a victim’s door and asked to use a phone. When she left, residents would find their purse or money missing. Most victims were in their 70s or 80s.
