A former Edward Jones stockbroker was arrested on charges of theft and forgery.
Vincent Earl Cunningham, 36, allegedly forged a letter of authorization to transfer nearly $15,000 from the brokerage account of a Las Vegas mother and son in January 2003.
Investigators for the Secretary of State's Securities Division say he did the same a month later, taking another $14,000 from the account.
When questioned, Cunningham said the money was taken to invest and would return a profit to the account, but investigators say no money was returned.
All four of the charges are felonies.
