Kaileigh Hogan, 25, of Ontario, Canada, faces forgery and theft charges for allegedly stealing a package in Bensalem that contained around $43,500 worth of gold and silver jewelry, police said. Hogan was arrested last month at the U.S.-Canada border in Lewiston, New York.
A Canadian woman was arrested last month after she allegedly stole a FedEx package that contained around $43,500 worth of gold and silver jewelry meant for a recipient in Bensalem, authorities said Friday.
Kaileigh Hogan, 25, of Ontario, was taken into custody on July 5 while attempting to return to Canada via a border crossing in Lewiston, New York. Hogan allegedly stole the package in Bensalem on May 11, police said.
The investigation began in May when the person meant to receive the package called Bensalem police to report that the jewelry had been stolen. The rightful owner told investigators a family member had observed a woman claim to be the recipient of the package and sign for it before leaving the area.
Authorities used intersection cameras, license plate readers and other surveillance videos to identify a Nissan sedan that had been in the area where the theft occurred on May 11. Investigators learned Hogan had rented the vehicle from Enterprise Rent-A-Car at the Philadelphia International Airport the day before the theft, police said.
After taking the package, Hogan allegedly returned to the airport and flew to Arizona.
Police did not say whether Hogan was aware the package contained gold and silver before she signed for it, and authorities also have not said whether any of the jewelry was recovered. Investigators obtained an arrest warrant for Hogan after the theft was reported and notified U.S. Customs and Border Protection to be on the lookout for her. Hogan was in the United States on a visa.
Hogan was extradited from New York to Bensalem on July 31. She's charged with forgery, theft by deception and related offenses. Hogan is being held at the Bucks County Correctional Facility with bail set at 10% of $1 million.
