A Peterborough woman is facing charges including theft and possession of stolen property following an investigation.
Late last month, officers with the Peterborough Police Service investigated the theft of a cheque which was later signed by an unknown person, then cashed at a Money Mart in the city.
The investigation later led to the identity of a suspect in the case.
