ALGONA — A woman has been arrested and charged with stealing some of the money generated at a concession stand operated by a sports booster club.

Members of the booster club’s board filed a complaint with the Sheriff’s Department about missing money on Nov. 10. The person responsible for the summer concession proceeds had failed to provide proof of deposits that were estimated at $5,820, deputies reported.
