An Odessa woman faces felony charges after she allegedly stole $3,500 worth of property from an acquaintance in Kansas City and stashed the items at her residence in Lafayette County.
A probable-cause statement says Odessa Police officers with assistance from KCPD detectives served a search warrant at an apartment in the 400 block of North 4th Street on Wednesday, January 2.
35-year-old Lori O’Quinn was arrested after authorities found several of the reported stolen items within the residence. Also, authorities reportedly found drug paraphernalia and methamphetamine.
