A Queens woman was arrested Wednesday evening and charged with stealing more than $14,000 through “fraudulent cash refund transactions” at the Manhasset Crate & Barrel store where she was employed, Nassau County police said.
Krystal Clark, 28, of 172nd Street, Jamaica, was charged with third-degree grand larceny and first-degree falsifying business record after her arrest at the store on Northern Boulevard at 6:30 p.m., police said.
She faces arraignment Thursday in First District Court in Hempstead, police said.
Police said Clark conducted the fraudulent refunds between May 2015 and January, causing a loss to Crate & Barrel.
