Woman pleads guilty to embezzling from Sioux Falls bank

SIOUX FALLS (AP) — Authorities say a former employee of a Sioux Falls bank has pleaded guilty to embezzling.

U.S. Attorney Brendon Johnson says 61-year-old Lona Mahon took about $23,000 from the bank over a two-year period.

She appeared in federal court last week in Sioux Falls and is free on bond. She faces up to 30 years in prison and a $1 million fine.
