Allegedly using the same stolen credit card three times at the same convenience store has led to the arrest of an Iowa City man.
The alleged victim reported missing his wallet, and that his credit card had been used without his authorization at the East Burlington Street Kum & Go just after 3am on April 17th. Police say surveillance video from the store shows 29-year-old Jamaal Green of South Gilbert Street using the card to make three purchases worth a total of $377.30.
A warrant was issued for Green’s arrest on Wednesday, and he was booked into the Johnson County Jail just after 10am Friday. He’s charged with 4th Degree Theft and Unauthorized Use of a Credit Card. If convicted on both charges, he faces a maximum of three years in prison.
