COVINGTON, IN - A former superintendent of a western Indiana school district was arrested Friday on forgery, theft and perjury charges after a state audit found that he misused nearly $36,000. Indiana State Police arrested Nathan Evans three days after Fountain County prosecutors filed a total of 17 felony charges against the former top administrator of the Covington Community School Corp. Evans headed the district for eight years before resigning in February when authorities began investigating discrepancies in school accounts. Chief deputy prosecutor Mark McGrady says Evans' actions included charging the purchase of a washer and dryer to the district and then putting them in his home. Evans was released on bond pending an initial court appearance Dec. 15. (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
