Fairfax City police arrested a Manassas woman Monday for allegedly writing a bad check to make a down payment on a vehicle.

Ashley Kathryne Shultzaberger, 29, of 9220 Hastings Drive, was served with an arrest warrant for felony bad check at the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center, according to a police report. She was jailed on a $5,000 bond.

The case began on Feb. 3, when a manager at Farrish of Fairfax, 9610 Fairfax Blvd., reported to police that on Oct. 24, a female subject had presented a check for a down payment on a vehicle. The check was subsequently returned by the bank because the account had been closed, and the subject had not responded to numerous attempts to contact her.

As the result of investigation by the police department’s Criminal Investigation Division, an arrest warrant was obtained charging Shultzaberger.
