A 55 year old Thorold woman is facing fraud charges in relation to an incident involving Meals on Wheels in Port Colborne.

Last October, Niagara Regional Police started an investigation after complaints that an employee of the organization had allegedly stolen in excess of $118,000.

Police arrested Anita Postma and have charged her with fraud over $5,000.

She was released on an Officer-In-Charge undertaking.

She's to appear in court in April.

Anyone with information in the case is asked to contact police.
