HUNTINGTON, Ind. (WOWO):  A 49-year-old employee of the Huntington County Health Department is arrested for theft.

According to officers with the Indiana State Police Criminal Investigation Division from the Fort Wayne Post, back in October 2013, an allegation of theft was made to the State Police by the Huntington County Auditor against Joseph Rakoczy, of Huntington.
