Woman facing charges in antique mall theft

CLARK COUNTY, Ohio -- Deputies say that Jessica Checklick stole two rings from the Heart of Ohio Antique Center in Springfield.

A worker at the center told deputies that while reviewing merchandise, she noticed that tags on two rings were switched and were not the rings that had been for sale.  The original rings were replaced with different rings.

Deputies reviewed security camera video and discovered that Checklick took the rings, valued at over $500.

Checklick may be linked to thefts in Fairfield and in Hocking County. She was arrested Monday for passing bad checks at another local antique dealer.
