PUEBLO COUNTY, COLO. -- Pueblo County Sheriff's deputies are looking for four additional people in connection with a fraud investigation that began last month and has resulted in two arrests so far.

Deputies began investigating personal checks being stolen from mailboxes on Dec. 14. Deputies worked closely with the victim and issuing bank to find several checks had been used in local stores in and around Pueblo.

Jamie Wetmore and Bree Agee were arrested earlier this week after deputies were able to identify them from surveillance photos taken from the stores. Both have also been arrested in other states in the past.
