Two women are facing charges for allegedly using disabled children to defraud Union Township residents out of money earlier this month.

On Monday, Union Township police filed misdemeanor theft charges on Amie McRoberts, 37, and Catherine Nickell, 41.

Investigators say the women sent the girls door-to-door requesting donations so the children could attend a special needs camp.

Police say both girls suffer from learning disabilities and the money was never going to a special needs organization, it was going to pay their parents' bills.

If you have information about potential victims, call the Union Township Police Department at (513)752-1230.
