CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) –Thirty-one-year-old Raymond Balderrama and 45-year-old Robert L. Jones are accused of misappropriating funds from two Pop Warner Little Scholars programs.
Indiana State Police alleged Balderrama stole $6,361.23 from the Northlake Pop Warner program while Jones stole $2,470.13 from the Griffith Pop Warner program.
Pop Warner Little Scholars is a non-profit organization known for offering youth football and cheerleading programs for kids across the country.
It’s unclear how the men were tied to the programs, but both are charged with felony counts of theft.
Warrants have been issued by a Lake Superior Court judge for each of their arrests.
Police said Balderrama was supposed to turn himself in on Monday morning but has failed to do so.
