MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WSFA) - Alabama Rep. Will Dismukes turned himself into authorities at the Montgomery County Detention Facility Thursday night on a warrant for first degree theft of property.

Montgomery County District Attorney Daryl Bailey announced Thursday afternoon that an arrest warrant had been issued for Dismukes.

Dismukes is accused of stealing money from his former employer, Weiss Commercial Flooring Inc., over the course of two years. The amount is well in excess of $2,500, Bailey said.

Less than a month ago, Dismukes made national headlines for attending a party to commemorate Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard Nathan Bedford Forrest, hosted by an individual with close ties to the League of the South. Despite calls to resign from both Republicans and Democrats, Dismukes refused to step down from his political office, only walking away from a pastor position he held in Autauga County.

9. I do realize that. However, it is correct journalistic form to mention party & state.

The Washington Post, as well as UK newspapers, stated his party affiliation.
