SHREVEPORT, La. (AP) — Sheriff's deputies say a former bookkeeper for an oil field company stationed in north Caddo Parish has been arrested on a warrant charging her with stealing from the company.

The Times reports 58-year-old Carol Ann Williamson of Ida was arrested on a 2010 warrant charging her with criminal theft.

Investigators say Williamson's former employer, Tri State Sales and Productions, told deputies that more than $60,000 was missing from the company, and an internal audit traced at least half of the missing money to Williamson.

Detective Frank Edmondson said Williamson left Tri State in 2009 because of illness.

While Williamson was sick, deputies say the new bookkeeper reportedly noticed problems with the accounts.

It could not be determined if Williamson has an attorney.
