Posted

A worker at Flyways convenience store in Chehalis was arrested Wednesday for allegedly stealing over $850 in merchandise from the business.

Misty Marvel Johnson, 29, of Chehalis, was arrested and booked into the Lewis County Jail just after 1:15 p.m. on Nov. 19, according to jail and court records, after officers with the Chehalis Police Department responded to an embezzlement report from the business in the 100 block of Southwest Interstate Avenue.

A loss prevention specialist and the store’s manager reported that they had video and logs indicating that Johnson had embezzled over $850 in merchandise from the store, according to court documents.



Johnson allegedly provided the loss prevention specialist with a written statement “admitting she was responsible for the stolen merchandise and apologizing,” according to court documents.

She did not provide a statement to police during her arrest.

Arraignment is scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 27.
