ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (WIVB) - State Police have charged a Buffalo woman with stealing checks out of mailboxes.

Police arrested 49-year-old Priscilla Robinson on Saturday and charged her with third degree grand larceny and second degree possession of a forged instrument. Police say the Orchard Park Police department investigated Robinson and found she had stolen checks from mailboxes, then had the names of the payee and amounts on the check changed. Police say Robinson cashed checks in Amherst and Lockport for over $6,500 in cash.

Robinson is awaiting sentencing in Monroe County for a misdemeanor plea from last September. She is currently being held at the Erie County Holding Center.

Anyone with similar incidents that they have not reported can contact the State Police at 759-6831.
