WASHINGTON, Pa. — (WPXI) – Members of Washington VFW reached out to our news partners at Channel 11 for help, after their former secretary/treasurer is accused of stealing nearly $12,000 from the post. Police charged Frank McVicker with felony theft charges in September, and there is a warrant out for his arrest. The VFW began looking into McVicker after the bank called with concerns about ATM withdrawals. VFW officers tell Channel 11 they didn’t even know the card existed. Washington City Police say McVicker used it to buy Delta plane tickets, items from Home Depot and Lowes, jewelry and vehicle registration transactions in his name totaling $11,878 in unauthorized charges. Washington County District Attorney Jason Walsh says there’s been a warrant out for McVicker’s arrest since September, but police haven’t been able to track him down. Investigators say he could be in Florida.
