Gulf Shores has taken its share of financial hits this year; layoffs, a hiring freeze and lost revenue. Now...city hall is dealing with yet another blow...the arrest of a former worker accused of stealing city funds.
Charity Talbot, the city's former senior account clerk, was arrested and charged with theft of property and illegal possession of a credit card. Both charges are felonies. Investigators believe Talbot had been stealing money from the city for more than a month. We tried to contact city officials and Talbot's attorney, Baldwin County lawyer Don McGriff, but nobody would talk to us about the arrest.
Talbot is free on bond. A police investigator would not tell us how much money Talbot is accused of stealing but says Talbot was fired after she was arrested.
