Police: Missing cash led to internal investigation at store.

An 18-year-old worker at a Port Chester store has been arrested in connection with the theft of $1,000 from the store, according to Port Chester Police.

Geralda L. Francilme of 690 Fairview Ave., Bridgeport, CT, was charged with petty larceny on Saturday after representatives of the store, 24 Waterfront Place, complained she was involved with a theft from the store.

Police said the charge stems from a Jan. 19 incident at the store, where employees were compiling cash at the end of their shift. Police said the discovery that cash was missing led to an internal investigation at the store.
