BRIGHTON, Colo. (AP) — Prosecutors have filed charges alleging a 67-year-old woman stole at least $100,000 worth of diamonds at the Denver Merchandise Mart.

The Merchandise Mart is in Adams County just north of the border with Denver.
Muhaisen appeared in court Thursday to be formally advised of the charge. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for May 7.
