BATON ROUGE — A caregiver was arrested for allegedly stealing a credit card from a 77-year-old woman, arrest documents say.

Breanah Richardson, 27, was arrested for exploitation of elderly persons or persons with infirmities. She had worked as a caregiver for Home Instead from June 4 to Sept. 4.

Deputies said that the victim contacted them in September about unauthorized transactions made on her card in Texas. Officials learned that seven transactions were made that totaled to $334.60; those charges were made from June 19 to June 21.

Those charges included almost $79 at Pop-A-Lock in Zachary and almost $60 spent at Buffalo Wild Wings in Houston.

Officials were able to determine Richardson as the suspect from information provided by Pop-A-Lock. She was arrested on Wednesday.
