Police said the suspects would run food stamp debit cards and pocket 50 to 60 cents on the dollar when customers would pull out cash.
US Attorney Booth Goodwin says that the owner of the All In One store on 9th Avenue and the manager of the Huntington Food Market on Hal Greer Boulevard are indicted for fraud.
Four people in total are arrested for allegedly swiping assistance program cards in exchange for cash.
