SOMERS – A 35-year-old Hyde Park woman was arrested on Tuesday on several charges in connection with allegedly stealing from a person for whom she was a caretaker, police said.

Brandy Lee was arrested following an investigation by State Police from the Somers barracks in conjunction with the Westchester County District Attorney’s Office.

Lee was charged with identity theft, scheme to defraud, grand larceny and 11 counts each of falsifying business records and criminal impersonation.

Following a tip from a financial institution investigation in conjunction with the DA’s office, it was determined that while a caretaker for the victim, she impersonated and stole from the victim for her own personal gain, authorities said.

Lee was arrested in the Town of Hyde Park and remanded to the Westchester County Jail pending arraignment.
