A MAN has been arrested on suspicion of obtaining property by deception.
Alan Craddock, 55, of Croxdale Grove, Bishop Auckland, was questioned by police last week.
The arrest follows concerns raised with Cleveland Police by a woman from Stockton who reported irregularities in the financial affairs of an elderly male relative, who had died at the start of the year. The alleged offences had taken place in the County Durham area.
Mr Craddock has been released on police bail
