A Vancouver man was arrested Thursday for allegedly using corporate-issued credit cards to buy $150,000 in personal items, according to the Vancouver Police Department.
Paul R. Fite, 52, was arrested after Vancouver Police Major Crimes detectives, with assistance from the Neighborhood Response Team, conducted a warrant search of his home at 8013 N.E. 163rd Ave., a VPD bulletin said.
The arrest resulted from an investigation by VPD Major Crimes detectives that began in June 2013 into a former Hewlett-Packard employee.
Based on evidence gathered in the search and information from the investigation, police took Fite into custody on suspicion of first-degree theft and trafficking stolen property. He was booked into the Clark County Jail.
A VPD statement said the investigation is continuing.
