A Florida man was arrested after an investigation by Paducah police detectives reportedly linked him to thefts from a Paducah church.

According to the Paducah Police Department, representatives from the church called Paducah police and reported someone had stolen checks totaling more than $11,000 from the church's mailbox. Detectives gathered information from local banks and determined the checks had been cashed at an ATM in Hollywood, FL.

Thirty-five year old Vlad Dragos Baceanu of Hollywood, FL was identified as a suspect and Paducah detectives obtained an arrest warrant charging Baceanu with theft of mail matter.

Baceanu was arrested earlier this month in Florida and is awaiting extradition to Kentucky.

Paducah Police say the investigation is ongoing.
