RUMFORD – A Jay woman was charged Tuesday with felony theft from a motor vehicle following an investigation into a Cumberland Street incident.

Sherri L. Turner, 39, was summoned for burglary of a motor vehicle, Sgt. George Cayer said.

Turner “is the ex-girlfriend of the victim” and allegedly took compact discs and other items from a vehicle parked on Cumberland Street, Cayer added.

The items were recovered and returned to their owner.

Cayer said he believed the incident was related to a criminal mischief incident being investigated by Jay police in which Turner’s car’s tires were slit and its windows smashed.

According to a Jay detective contacted Friday afternoon, the Jay officer investigating the incident was on another shift and not available for comment on the case.
