The former owner of Peoria's Murray Custom Cabinetry was arrested Thursday on multiple charges of defrauding his customers.

Thomas Murray, 35, allegedly collected more than $106,000 between June 2020 and August 2022 from customers for work he failed to perform.

Peoria police arrested Murray at his Pekin home on 16 counts of deceptive practices.

Formal charges haven't been filed yet by the Peoria County State's Attorney's Office.
