A former postal employee in Stamford is being sought by authorities after a federal grand jury returned a 10-count indictment against her in connection with a scheme involving forged checks.

A reward of up to $100,000 is being offered by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service for information leading to the arrest and conviction of 34-year-old Kierra Blount of Stamford, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Connecticut.

A grand jury returned an indictment against Blount on March 26, federal officials said. The indictment was unsealed on Wednesday.
