(KNZA)--A Topeka man is facing charges in Jackson County for his alleged deceptive practices related to the construction of swimming pool.

Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse, in a release, said 56-year-old Douglas Carney was arrested in Ballard County, Kentucky by a state trooper on a Jackson County District Court warrant for two felony counts of theft by deception and one count of deceptive commercial practices.

The warrant was issued following an investigation by the Jackson County Sheriff's Office.

A Jackson County resident reported that, through a series of contracts, Carney allegedly agreed to complete the construction of a swimming pool at their property.
However, Morris said Carney never completed any of the work and he allegedly discontinued his communication with the victim after taking their money.

On Friday, Jackson County deputies returned Carney back to the state of Kansas. Carney is currently being held in the Jackson County Jail.
