A woman who allegedly posed as a health worker to steal medication from elderly people has been arrested.
The accused had been pretending to work for the Waikato District Health Board in order to gain access to elderly people in their homes before going on to steal their medication.
Waikato police today said most of the victims had been living in retirement villages.
"It is known that she has used a black Toyota Corolla to travel throughout the Waikato and is described as a well-dressed and well-spoken Caucasian woman."
