KIRKSVILLE, MO. -- Two northeast Missouri teens are facing felony charges in connection with a stolen credit card.

Brian Percy, 17, and Marcus Estrada, 18, both from Kirksville, are each charged with one count of forgery.

Court documents allege the two used a credit card belonging to a 16-year-old and his mother at several stores in Kirksville and Columbia.

The 16-year-old told authorities he knew Estrada was involved because Estrada had driven his car the day before the card came up missing from the vehicle.

Percy and Estrada are being held in the Adair County Jail on $25,000 cash only bond.
