AUSTIN (KXAN) — A warrant has been issued for a woman accused of deleting company files using company login information and access.

According to the warrant, Alexis N. Voudrie, 24, was terminated one week before the end of a contract job after it was discovered she had deliberately closed the company's account and information with Canva, a graphic-design tool website.

The Austin Police Department says that while the account was able to be recovered, the information and documents were lost. The company estimated those documents, some of which "took hours to create each one by graphic designers," represented an estimated loss of $56,625. 

The warrant says that the police investigation led officials to an IP address that corresponded to times when Voudrie would have been logged into the account (and also lined up to when the Canva account was closed). A further investigation traced the account access to the home of Voudrie's parents.
