CINCINNATI (UPI) -- A woman who went to an Ohio county courthouse to pick up an indictment faces another charge after she allegedly cheated the blind owner of the courthouse deli.

Melissa Cordell is now charged with theft by deception. She was arrested at the Hamilton County Courthouse, the Cincinnati Enquirer said.

Cordell allegedly gave Kent Parker, owner of the Courthouse Deli, a $1 bill, telling him it was a five. A few minutes later, police said, she upped the ante by telling him she had given him a $10 bill.

She was arrested after allegedly trying the trick a third time. That time, an employee saw what she was up to and alerted Parker.

Good throw the book at her

I can't believe a human being could do that to a poor blind man trying to make an honest living.

I agree, Throw the book at her. I big fat, heavy book to!
