31-year-old Marc Peagler is accused of stealing money from the Jewish Association on Aging in Squirrel Hill, a care and living facility for Jewish senior citizens.

Police say he created a fake LLC, hired third-party contractors to do maintenance and approved invoices.

For three years, police allege Peagler billed the facility for work that had never been done and cashed the checks for himself, totaling more than $50,000.

Police say he didn't stop there. He also used a company Lowe's credit card and charged nearly $6,000.
