Montville — A Niantic man turned himself in Thursday to state police on a warrant that alleges he embezzled more than $5,000.

Steven Frishchling, 35, of 49 Sea Breeze Ave. was charged with second-degree larceny and first-degree forgery.

Police said charges were brought against Frischling after an extensive investigation of an embezzlement via a forgery. Police did not provide specifics of the crime or say how much was taken, but second-degree larceny involved the theft of $5,001 to $10,000.

Frischling is out on a $25,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in New London Superior Court June 15.
