Arrested and arraigned in Girard Municipal Court were Aaron K. Wright Jr., 21, 149 Breaden St.; Terrance T. Phillips, 21, 372 Mary Knoll Ave., Campbell; Mark S. Lett II, 21, 3055 Hadley, Youngstown; and Alexandria Daniel, 18, 159 Maywood Drive, Youngstown. A warrant was issued for another suspect, Brian Cunningham, 20. Detective Sgt. Thomas R. Couche' said the department is looking at three other suspects.

The information on the device then was downloaded and used to make new cards either in the names of the persons which the original cards belonged or in the names of the perpetrators, police said.
