A 34-year-old woman remained behind bars this weekend on multiple charges after she was arrested earlier this month at Belk in The Villages.

Martine Sophie Donlan had been spotted Feb. 10 walking barefoot in the Spanish Springs area carrying several large bags. She entered the store, selected items including perfume and when she re-emerged, those items were not visible, according to an arrest report from the Lady Lake Police Department.

A search of her bag turned up methamphetamine, morphine and $260 in counterfeit money.

She was arrested on charges of possession of methamphetamine, possession of morphine and possession of 10 or more forged bills.

Donlan was booked on $6,000 bond at the Lake County Jail.
