A 65-year-old woman was sentenced recently in Accomack Circuit Court to five years in prison for stealing a credit card number.

      All but four months in jail was suspended for Carolyn Roberta Watts, of Kilmontown Road in Melfa. Charges of embezzling less than $1,000 and credit card fraud were not prosecuted.  Records show Watts worked for a home nursing business when the crime occurred last April.
