Douglas Harold Gamblin |
A man who served the town of Sardis for more than 20 years
as its clerk was arrested Wednesday on theft charges.
Etowah County Sheriff Todd Entrekin said 55 year old Douglas
Harold Gamblin, of Crossville, has been
charged with one count of first degree theft of property. Investigators say
more charges are expected.
Gamblin resigned suddenly back in April from the job after
town officials requested a special audit. Investigators say Gamblin stole about
$13,500 from the town's court fund between last October and March of this year.
Gamblin was booked into the Etowah County Detention Center
and later released on $5,000 bond.
