PINEVILLE, La. (AP) - Police say a 55-year-old Pineville woman is facing charges she defrauded an elderly person under her care.

Pineville police received a report on Oct. 24 that someone had been defrauding the victim.

Police say $25,000 is missing from the victim's bank account.

The victim's caretaker -- Carolyn Farr -- was arrested and booked into the Rapides Parish Detention Center, where she is awaiting bond.

She was booked with unauthorized use of an access card over $500, forgery and exploitation of the infirmed.

It was unclear whether Farr has an attorney.
