Grand juries in Warren and Hamilton counties have indicted a man after a spree of credit card thefts from medical facilities in several counties.

A Warren County grand jury indicted James W. Barton, 23, on four counts of forgery, misuse of a credit card and receiving stolen property on Friday. A Hamilton County grand jury indicted him Feb. 27 on 18 counts of burglary, theft, forgery, misuse of credit cards and receiving stolen property.

Barton had allegedly been stealing credit cards from unattended purses in hospitals and doctor’s offices along the Interstate 75 corridor. Investigators believe Barton is responsible for thefts in Oxford, West Chester Twp., Mason, Wilmington and Kettering. Shortly after stealing the cards, Barton allegedly made purchases at big-box stores, including Walmart and Meijer, near the sites of the thefts, police said.

The Warren County grand jury also indicted Travis D. Johnson, 32, on one count each of receiving stolen property and misuse of a credit card. Police suspect he was driving Barton in a Mason-area theft.
