GENTRY -- Police arrested Amanda Bone, 25, of Bentonville, and charged her with shoplifting, possession of a controlled substance and two counts of possession of drug paraphernalia following a Feb. 5 shoplifting report from the Dollar General Store in Gentry.

According to police reports, Bone was detained by store employees after she stuffed store items into her purse. Bone also admitted to police that she had shoplifted from the store another time earlier in the day and had the items in her car.

Property taken from the Dollar General totaled $180.32, according to police reports.

A woman with Bone on the second trip to the store was questioned in regard to her involvement in the shoplifting but was not charged.

Police also found that Bone's driver's license was suspended and that the licence plate on her car was fictitious, according to reports. When police decided to tow the car, Bone is alleged to have retrieved a pill bottle and syringe from the car, attempting to quickly put them into her purse. Police also found a spoon with green powdery residue in it.

Bone is alleged to have said the spoon and syringe were her husband's. According to reports, she said some of the pills in the bottle were Oxycontin, for which she had a prescription. Another pill, she said was Roxycontin and was left there by her husband.

Bone was cited and released, though her car was towed by Gentry Towing, according to reports. She was also warned not to return to the Dollar General or she would face criminal trespass charges.

Fraud, forgery case

In another case, police reports state that Keisha Kay Landry, 46, now being held in the Benton County Jail, admitted to fraudulently using an ATM/debit card at several Gentry businesses, forging the card owner's name, and that she forged a check owned by the same victim at a Gentry auto parts store.

According to police reports, Landry stated that a man who was with her broke into the victim's car in Decatur and stole the victim's purse.

According to information released by the Gentry Police Department, a purse was stolen from a car parked in Decatur on April 5, 2013. An unidentified woman was then alleged to have used the victim's ATM/debit card to make six purchases in Gentry and forge a check on the victim's account to make an additional purchase at an auto parts store in Gentry.

According to information released by police, debit card purchases at Walmart in Gentry amounted to $200; $105.44; $53.94; and $53.94. Debit card purchases at the Phillips 66 Station in Gentry amounted to $117.63, and $54.06. A forged personal check to O'Reilly Auto Parts in Gentry was in the amount of $513.03.

An acquaintance of the woman identified her from the photos captured in Walmart surveillance videos and published in the Eagle Observer on June 5. Police believed the woman might be from the Tulsa or Broken Arrow area of Oklahoma because she allegedly used the victim's card to purchase time for a Boost Mobile phone with a Tulsa area number and also provided a Broken Arrow number for warranty information on the auto parts she purchased with the forged check in Gentry.

She also allegedly attempted to use the victim's Kohls' card at the 11001 East 71st Street Kohl's in Tulsa, but the card was declined.

Landry, of Broken Arrow, Okla., who also uses the last name of Fowlkes, was arrested in Tulsa on charges relating to forgery and the fraudulent use of a credit card. She had been one of Tulsa's most wanted and was recognized by an officer in a traffic stop for an improperly lit license plate.

Landry is being charged with eight felonies in connection with fraud and forgery in Gentry, according to police. Gentry police expect that Decatur charges for breaking into a car and stealing a purse will also be filed against Landry or the man she was with on April 5.

The Benton County Sheriff's Office online jail inmate list includes 14 charges against Landry.
