According to an arrest report, Evans began taking customer's credit card numbers in March of this year. The purchases were normally to book hotel rooms and food. Each purchase that Evans made was online.

Following his arraignment, Evans is being held on a $2,500 cash bond at Louisville Metro Corrections and is expected to be in court on Aug. 3.
