Police have made an arrest in the case of an elderly woman had more than $25,000 worth of jewelry stolen from her Miramar home after the suspects posed as FPL representatives.
Police have charged Rachel Demitro with several counts, including burglary, grand theft and violation of her probation for her role in distracting the victim.
Dimitro was arrested Thursday after being part of a duo with a man, 58-year-old Bob Ely, who committed a similar distraction scam on an elderly couple in Margate.
Broward Sheriff s Office officials says Dimitro distracted the homeowner by claiming she had to survey the property for future yard work by a neighbor. The homeowner later said he went back inside the home and found money stolen from his safe as well as a box of his wife s jewelry.
