A Carrollton man has been charged with a felony for defrauding a secured creditor.

According to a probable cause statement, BTC Bank attempted to repossess two pickup trucks in Nathaniel Steward’s possession. After Steward failed to deliver both vehicles to the bank, authorities from the Carroll County Sheriff’s office got involved and supervised the recovery of the trucks.

Authorities report that both vehicles had several parts and pieces of equipment removed from them, and neither vehicle was in operational condition. One vehicle had the engine removed, and the other one had the transmission removed.

Court documents say Steward is charged with felony for defrauding a secured creditor. Bond is set at $10,000 cash only with special conditions.

Court arrangements are pending at Carroll County Circuit Court.
