State Police are investigating the theft of more than $54,000 from the savings of a 74-year-old Lawrence County woman.

According to a media release, police say the Volant woman repeatedly withdrew money from her bank account over one month and sent checks and money orders to someone police are unable to identify.

Investigators, who estimate the total loss at $54,206, say they currently have no investigative leads.

Police have not revealed further details of the scheme.
