The arrest of one suspect wanted for theft in Prince George’s County has closed 17 warrants for the county sheriff’s office.

Patricia Hess, who allegedly sold approximately $1,045 in stolen goods to a local pawnshop, was arrested Tuesday in Baltimore. The property was stolen by an acquaintance of Hess, according to authorities.

The Anne Arundel County resident is being held pending an $85,000 bond at the Prince George’s County Detention Center.

Hess was wanted on 17 warrants — in addition to the warrant for theft, there were seven warrants for failure to appear for theft of less than $100, and nine warrants for failure to appear for theft of less than $1,000.

She is also wanted in Anne Arundel County on theft charges, authorities said.
